00:00:21James, hey, wake up.
00:00:23Honey, honey, I think there's someone in the house.
00:00:55Honey, honey, I think there's someone in the house.
00:01:04There's somebody in the house.
00:01:06James, wake up.
00:01:08James, wake up.
00:01:09Wake up, James.
00:01:11There's somebody down here.
00:01:13There's somebody in the house.
00:01:16Look at me.
00:01:17Look at me.
00:01:41Good morning, husband.
00:01:46Good morning, wife.
00:01:49I didn't know you were up.
00:01:52Wife.
00:01:52I didn't think I was the, hey, we're in Vegas, let's get hitched kind of girl.
00:01:57Yeah.
00:01:58Well, here we are.
00:01:59Oh, damn right.
00:02:05I got you something.
00:02:08You did?
00:02:11It's just a little post-wedding gift, a small token of my love.
00:02:17Babe, I didn't get you anything.
00:02:20You gave me everything.
00:02:26Go ahead.
00:02:27Open it.
00:02:29Okay.
00:02:38Wow.
00:02:41You said you had a watch like it in your 20s that you lost, so.
00:02:46Yeah.
00:02:48I can't believe that you remembered that story.
00:02:56You're welcome.
00:03:00Wow.
00:03:05So, is Mara cool with this, with us, you know, getting married now?
00:03:11I think so.
00:03:13I mean, we're going to have to do something more formal with her sometime soon, but.
00:03:17Absolutely.
00:03:18My mom is going to move in a minute, so, you know, we can all celebrate our love together.
00:03:23I don't like the sound of that.
00:03:26Hmm.
00:03:28What time's our flight?
00:03:29Uh, it's at noon, so I'll go pick her up and, look, I really, I can't thank you guys
00:03:33enough for letting her stay with us.
00:03:36It means a lot.
00:03:37I just moved in.
00:03:39Now, you've got two of us to deal with.
00:03:41We're family.
00:03:44I mean, I guess it was a little bit weird, but you and I tied but not, and I haven't
00:03:47even met your mom, but.
00:03:49Yeah.
00:03:50Yeah, and she's just, uh, Maggie's been too sick to travel lately.
00:03:55I'm telling you, Kristen, diabetes can be a real bitch.
00:04:01And I should warn you, I can kind of make her one, too.
00:04:05Well, I'm sure I can handle her.
00:04:09And I know I can handle you.
00:04:25Your form is so good.
00:04:31Look, I don't, I don't mean to ruin your workout.
00:04:34I just want to check in on you.
00:04:35Oh, no, it's no worries.
00:04:36It was just about done.
00:04:39I didn't see James this morning.
00:04:41Where is he?
00:04:41Oh, he's speaking to his mother up at the airport, remember?
00:04:44Oh, yeah.
00:04:44That's today.
00:04:46You two have been a couple for, like, what, six months now?
00:04:50I cannot believe you haven't even met his mom.
00:04:53Well, I think that this way, isn't it awesome we get to meet her together?
00:04:58Yeah, sure.
00:04:59Why not?
00:05:01Honey, look, I know I've asked you this a bunch of times, but you're, you're not upset,
00:05:07right?
00:05:07I mean, about us running off to get married.
00:05:09No.
00:05:11No, I just, I think that maybe it feels a little, soon.
00:05:18I usually reserve that term for bad jokes about tragedy, but, yeah, maybe a little.
00:05:26But you like him, though, right?
00:05:28James?
00:05:29No, yeah.
00:05:30I really do.
00:05:32I see the way that he treats you.
00:05:33It's very sweet, and I think that you deserve it, but, like you said, it just, it happened
00:05:42so fast, and I feel like you're still pretty vulnerable after everything that happened last
00:05:46year.
00:05:49Maybe.
00:05:51Maybe.
00:05:52Honey, I'm an adult, and I know what's right for me.
00:05:56I am so much better than a year ago.
00:06:01You know, you and James are a big part of why.
00:06:09Heck, you know, between my loving daughter and my new husband and my shrink, I'm pretty
00:06:14much as good as new.
00:06:15I know how terrible it all was, but honestly, Mom, think about it like this.
00:06:20How many people really get stalked twice in their lifetime?
00:06:25I have no idea that if there's one, that's one too many.
00:06:48Mom, I would like for you to meet my gorgeous and generous wife, Kristen, and her awesome
00:06:55and equally generous daughter, Mara.
00:06:57This is my mom, Maggie.
00:07:00It's so nice to finally meet you, Maggie.
00:07:02Welcome to our home.
00:07:05Yeah, our casa is your casa.
00:07:10Mom, would you like to say something to your host?
00:07:13Where's my room?
00:07:14Mom, come on.
00:07:16Be nice.
00:07:18Thank you for allowing me to stay with my boy.
00:07:23You're welcome.
00:07:25We're happy to have you.
00:07:26Yeah, we are happy to have you, Mom.
00:07:28Let's sit down.
00:07:30Isn't that nice?
00:07:36I'll try not to be too much trouble.
00:07:39Oh, I'm sure I'll be no trouble at all.
00:07:43Say cheese.
00:07:44What are you doing?
00:07:46Just taking your picture.
00:07:48Why?
00:07:49Why?
00:07:49How dirty?
00:07:50I hate having my photo taken.
00:07:52Put that thing away now.
00:07:54It's okay.
00:07:55It's okay, Mommy.
00:07:56It's okay.
00:07:57Why don't I go get some refreshments?
00:07:59Hey, Mara, would you help me?
00:08:00Oh, yeah, sure.
00:08:01Yeah.
00:08:01Great.
00:08:02Let's leave these two to get a little better acquainted.
00:08:04Mm, great.
00:08:05All right.
00:08:09So, it's Kristen, right?
00:08:12That's me.
00:08:17Well, you got a good-sized house here, Kristen.
00:08:20Oh, thanks.
00:08:22A bit tacky for my taste, but that's neither here nor there.
00:08:26Good for you, living high on that hog.
00:08:29You get the money from your first husband or something?
00:08:34Um, no, actually, Mara's father passed away when she was little.
00:08:42For the record, I'm the breadwinner of the family.
00:08:46Is that right?
00:08:47What exactly does the breadwinner do to make all that dough rise?
00:08:51I'm a divorce attorney.
00:08:53Ah, got it.
00:08:56So, while all those miserable, desperate people are suffering right there in front of you,
00:09:01you're just sitting there, billing the hours and raking in that cash.
00:09:06I mean, I'm not just sitting there.
00:09:08Oh, no, of course not.
00:09:10I'm just kidding.
00:09:13So, how'd you get my boy to marry you anyway?
00:09:17Oh, well, actually, it was, um, James was, you know, the one who suggested that we do it on the
00:09:22spot.
00:09:24Was the wedding nice, or what?
00:09:27Because this mother of the groom never saw a damn photo.
00:09:33Here you go.
00:09:34Now we're family.
00:09:36All of us.
00:09:39Isn't that wonderful?
00:09:42Yeah, I feel the same way.
00:09:44See?
00:09:45Look at you two.
00:09:46I knew it.
00:09:47A couple peas in a pod.
00:09:48Mmm.
00:09:50Mmm.
00:09:53Mom, is everything okay?
00:09:55Yeah.
00:09:55Yeah.
00:09:55I'm, uh, great.
00:09:57This is gonna be so much fun.
00:09:59Mmm.
00:10:06Uh, you wanted to see me?
00:10:08Come here.
00:10:08What's up?
00:10:09Come here.
00:10:10Yeah?
00:10:10Look, I just...
00:10:12What's going on?
00:10:17Kristen, just say it.
00:10:18Did your mother say anything to you about me?
00:10:22Just that she was thankful that you opened up your home to her.
00:10:27Really?
00:10:27She said that?
00:10:30I mean, I get the feeling that she doesn't like me all that much, and I have no idea what
00:10:33I did wrong.
00:10:33Okay, I don't...
00:10:34What happened?
00:10:35I mean, was it something in her tone, maybe?
00:10:37More like something in her words.
00:10:40Ah, Chris, I don't know.
00:10:41She's just from a different era?
00:10:43And yeah, I mean, she can be a little rough around the edges.
00:10:46You think?
00:10:47Yeah, but trust me, she has a big heart.
00:10:50And it's usually in the right place.
00:10:53She's probably just testing you.
00:10:55And see what you're made of.
00:10:57Great.
00:10:57I got an F on the first day.
00:10:59Look at me.
00:11:01Relax, okay?
00:11:03I love you.
00:11:04And Mara.
00:11:06And yeah, this happened really fast.
00:11:09But we have the rest of our lives to take it easy.
00:11:12All of us.
00:11:13So let's just, you know, let Maggie get used to her new surroundings.
00:11:17And I promise, this is all going to work out.
00:11:21Come here.
00:11:39What are you doing here?
00:11:41Well, maybe I just want to see that pretty face of yours.
00:11:44What do you want, Ross?
00:11:47Your request for child support is kill me, baby.
00:11:51Excuse me, baby?
00:11:53You know I don't have that much money.
00:11:55Shrinks make way more money than private investigators.
00:11:58Well, it's not my fault.
00:11:59You know I hate the word shrink.
00:12:00You know, I don't even know why we're getting divorced.
00:12:03Because you slept with your secretary, remember?
00:12:06Right.
00:12:08Hi.
00:12:10Good morning.
00:12:11Sorry.
00:12:11Did I make a mistake?
00:12:12Is this not my hour?
00:12:13No, no.
00:12:14I'm sorry.
00:12:14Kristen, of course it is.
00:12:16I'll call you later.
00:12:17I know you will.
00:12:21Please, come in.
00:12:23Thanks.
00:12:27Apologies again, Kristen.
00:12:29That's my soon-to-be ex, and he...
00:12:31Oh, never mind.
00:12:33I'm sure you hear about this divorce stuff all day long,
00:12:35and that is not at all the reason you're here.
00:12:39How are you doing?
00:12:41I'm, uh...
00:12:42I'm okay.
00:12:43You sure?
00:12:44You seem a little more undone today than usual.
00:12:47Did something happen?
00:12:48Maggie happened.
00:12:50Maggie?
00:12:52James' mother moved in with us a couple days ago.
00:12:54Okay, so...
00:12:55You have someone new living in your house.
00:12:58Yeah.
00:12:59She, um...
00:12:59She has diabetes, and she has to use a walker to get around.
00:13:03That poor woman, that's awful.
00:13:05What's she like?
00:13:07She doesn't like me, I can tell you that much.
00:13:09How do you know?
00:13:10I don't know, I'm just...
00:13:11The way that she looks at me, you know, I'm just cold, dismissive.
00:13:17The first time we met, she said something to me about my
00:13:20quickie wedding with her boy.
00:13:22Oh, sounds to me like she's just a little hurt that she didn't
00:13:25get to see you two get married.
00:13:26It sounded more to me like she was upset she didn't get to
00:13:28stop it.
00:13:30Well, mothers-in-laws, the new brides, butting heads,
00:13:34that's not exactly an uncommon thing.
00:13:36But, um...
00:13:37How's your mind doing otherwise?
00:13:42I'm, uh...
00:13:43I'm good.
00:13:44You know, I mean, I...
00:13:45I haven't had any nightmares the past few months.
00:13:48Mm-hmm.
00:13:49I feel like I can, I don't know, go about my business without
00:13:52looking in every direction for some guy creeping up behind me,
00:13:56and...
00:13:57I don't know, I can just...
00:14:00grieve, I guess.
00:14:02You know, it's...
00:14:04little things.
00:14:05Not so little newsflash.
00:14:08I mean, your stalker actually made it into your house.
00:14:12That's terrifying.
00:14:16I know.
00:14:17I know.
00:14:17I just, um...
00:14:19I mean, sometimes I feel like maybe I, uh, overreacted.
00:14:22Your reaction was perfectly natural.
00:14:24Lots of people out there would have experienced some kind of
00:14:27breakdown from that.
00:14:29If you ask me, you're doing great.
00:14:34Thanks, Dr. Lewis.
00:14:37Thanks to you, you know.
00:14:40And, uh, and my family, of course.
00:14:50I actually got up into the room.
00:14:52Oh, okay.
00:14:53All right.
00:14:54Gotta be careful.
00:14:55I might be watching.
00:14:56I don't want...
00:14:58Hey, girly.
00:14:59Hey.
00:15:00What's up, kid?
00:15:00Well, I'm just waiting for Michael to come pick me up.
00:15:03We're gonna go grab a bite to eat.
00:15:04Oh?
00:15:04And who is this Michael person?
00:15:07He's my boo.
00:15:08Your boo?
00:15:09Is he a damn ghost or something?
00:15:12Mom, she's talking about her boyfriend.
00:15:15And I happen to like the kid.
00:15:18That must be him.
00:15:21Michael, you can come in.
00:15:22We're in the living room.
00:15:26There he is.
00:15:27Hey, what's up, James?
00:15:28Well, my spirits.
00:15:30Now I got my lovely mother here in one piece.
00:15:33Or two.
00:15:34How's it hanging, kid?
00:15:35I'm Maggie.
00:15:37Michael, and it's hanging just fine, I guess.
00:15:41Your mama actually allows you to have boys over when she's not home?
00:15:45I'm 19.
00:15:46Exactly my point.
00:15:48Like little rabbits at your age.
00:15:50Bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop.
00:15:52Oh, my God.
00:15:54Where is Kristen anyway?
00:15:56She is at a therapy session.
00:15:58You gotta be kidding me.
00:16:01You know what we call therapy at my age?
00:16:03Sucking it up and walking it off.
00:16:08Therapy.
00:16:09It's like a weak sauce on a feeble sandwich.
00:16:13It's a little harsh.
00:16:15I don't think it's weird for her to get help after everything she's been through.
00:16:18Oh?
00:16:20And what happened?
00:16:23Do you know what?
00:16:24I'm starving.
00:16:25Should we go?
00:16:25Let's do this.
00:16:26Yeah.
00:16:27Hey, Michael.
00:16:28Come here.
00:16:29I've got something to tell you.
00:16:32Oh.
00:16:36Yeah, what's up?
00:16:38I gotta lean in if I'm gonna tell you.
00:16:41Boo!
00:16:43Mom.
00:16:45You were a strange one, Maggie.
00:16:48Yeah.
00:16:48Always have been.
00:16:50Always will be.
00:16:51Hey, come on, Michael.
00:16:52Let's go.
00:16:55You two have fun.
00:17:20She was doing so well after everything that happened.
00:17:23The last thing she needs is this lady picking at her, making her crazy.
00:17:27Yeah.
00:17:56Whoa.
00:17:57Whoa.
00:17:57Whoa.
00:17:57I just barely avoided getting attacks in the parking lot.
00:17:59Oh, my God. Are you serious?
00:18:01Steve, do me a favor. You call building management.
00:18:04They really need to get out of the game and have security around here.
00:18:06I mean, that is unacceptable.
00:18:07Wow, you were really almost just attacked?
00:18:10I mean, I definitely saw someone following me.
00:18:13You mean towards the entrance to the building?
00:18:19Well, yeah.
00:18:21Well, how close did the guy get to you? Was he, like, a car limp?
00:18:25No, no, not that close. I mean, as soon as I turned around, he took off.
00:18:31But that could have been for any number of reasons, right?
00:18:35Yeah, you're, uh, you're making valid points.
00:18:40Well, do you still want me to make that call?
00:18:44Yes.
00:18:58This is Kristen.
00:19:03Hello?
00:19:06Hello?
00:19:23This is Kristen.
00:19:28Hello?
00:19:31Who is this?
00:19:43Stop calling me.
00:19:44Wow.
00:19:45Well, hello to you, too.
00:19:47Hi, James.
00:19:49Is, uh, is everything okay?
00:19:51Yeah, yeah.
00:19:52I just, I kept getting this unknown number,
00:19:55and then when I answered, no one was there, and...
00:19:58You know what?
00:19:59Uh, never mind.
00:20:00Everything's fine.
00:20:02Good.
00:20:03Well, uh, Mara is out to dinner with Michael.
00:20:06I am done returning my client calls for the day,
00:20:08and it's just Mom and I here.
00:20:10We were wondering when you'd be coming home.
00:20:12I think she misses you already.
00:20:14Um, uh, soon.
00:20:16Good.
00:20:17See you soon.
00:20:18Bye.
00:20:19Okay, bye.
00:20:22Bye.
00:20:23Bye.
00:20:38You can't be serious.
00:20:39It's not gonna be for long, okay?
00:20:41Just a few months, max.
00:20:43A few months?
00:20:44Mara, I'm talking to two realtors
00:20:46who are looking for apartments for us right now in L.A.
00:20:49Well, Michael, I don't know what you want me to say, okay?
00:20:51I can't just leave her alone right now.
00:20:54She's a grown woman who can...
00:20:55Got the daylight scared out of her
00:20:57by some maniac at her spin class?
00:20:59Yeah, like a year ago.
00:21:04Oh.
00:21:05I'm sorry.
00:21:06I'm sorry.
00:21:07I'm sure it was a bad time.
00:21:09You have no idea.
00:21:10Okay?
00:21:11She was getting constant phone calls every single day.
00:21:14This psychopath was leaving these very disturbing messages
00:21:17talking about how they were soulmates
00:21:19and how they were meant to be together
00:21:20and she should just give in to fate.
00:21:22Oh.
00:21:23Calling her all the time,
00:21:25following her everywhere she went, okay?
00:21:27He was popping up at places
00:21:28that she didn't even know she was going to be.
00:21:31I literally watched her fall apart.
00:21:33Jesus.
00:21:34You never talked about it much.
00:21:36I had no idea it was that frightening.
00:21:39Frightening?
00:21:42The dude broke into our house
00:21:46and that's the night that
00:21:48she finally had her mental breakdown.
00:21:51Were you there at the time?
00:21:53When my mom needed me the most,
00:21:55I was at some stupid house party
00:21:56playing beer pong.
00:21:58You know,
00:21:59if I would have been there,
00:22:00who knows?
00:22:01Maybe I could have helped her keep it together.
00:22:04Mara,
00:22:05you can't blame yourself for that.
00:22:07Can't I?
00:22:08Just a little?
00:22:11I mean,
00:22:12I do feel responsible.
00:22:15That's why I've been sleeping at home again.
00:22:19Yeah.
00:22:20Don't remind me.
00:22:22Look,
00:22:22it's just gonna be until things calm down, okay?
00:22:27So,
00:22:28whatever happened to that spin class stalker anyways?
00:22:31The police came,
00:22:32they carted him away,
00:22:33but,
00:22:34you know,
00:22:34unfortunately by then,
00:22:35some real damage had already been committed.
00:22:38And,
00:22:39was she,
00:22:40like,
00:22:41committed?
00:22:42Yeah.
00:22:43Briefly.
00:22:44Just a couple of days,
00:22:46but,
00:22:47since then,
00:22:48she's just been getting by
00:22:49with support from friends and family.
00:22:51Well,
00:22:52it's a good thing she has a daughter like you then.
00:22:55James was a really big help too.
00:22:57Huh.
00:22:58Yeah,
00:22:58I like James.
00:23:00Me too.
00:23:01I don't know,
00:23:02there was always something
00:23:03different about him.
00:23:05You know,
00:23:05I couldn't quite put my finger on it,
00:23:06but,
00:23:07at least he's been a positive force
00:23:08in my mom's life.
00:23:16Hey,
00:23:16Maggie.
00:23:18Kristen.
00:23:22You demolish any
00:23:24marriages today?
00:23:27No.
00:23:27Three or four.
00:23:28Usual amount.
00:23:30What are you doing?
00:23:33Solving the conflicts
00:23:34in the Middle East
00:23:35is a lot harder
00:23:36than I thought.
00:23:37What does it look like
00:23:38I'm doing?
00:23:41Playing solitaire.
00:23:42I,
00:23:45I,
00:23:45I guess I just met,
00:23:46and how's it going?
00:23:49What did you say
00:23:50the name of this game was again?
00:23:53Solitaire.
00:23:54And how many people
00:23:56usually play it
00:23:57at one time?
00:23:58Just,
00:23:59just one.
00:24:00Huh.
00:24:01James said
00:24:02you were smart.
00:24:04Hmm.
00:24:05Where is James?
00:24:08I'm not really sure.
00:24:09Uh,
00:24:10he's
00:24:11doing some errands
00:24:12or something.
00:24:17What's wrong?
00:24:18You're looking
00:24:19a little frantic.
00:24:21No,
00:24:21I'm fine.
00:24:22It's just,
00:24:22uh.
00:24:31What's the matter?
00:24:32You're not gonna answer it?
00:24:37Hello?
00:24:43Hello?
00:24:47Hello?
00:24:50No one there?
00:24:52No,
00:24:53there's not.
00:24:59No,
00:24:59no,
00:25:00you don't.
00:25:01No!
00:25:02Where are you rushing off to?
00:25:06I saw you!
00:25:16Hey mom,
00:25:17what's wrong?
00:25:18You hardly even touched your food.
00:25:21Oh,
00:25:21yeah,
00:25:22don't mind me.
00:25:22I'm just a little stressed out
00:25:24for some reason tonight
00:25:25and there's nothing wrong with that.
00:25:27No.
00:25:28No,
00:25:29of course not.
00:25:30Are you,
00:25:32are you getting any more
00:25:33of those,
00:25:33those calls
00:25:34that we were talking about today?
00:25:37Are you?
00:25:40You know I did.
00:25:42What calls are they talking about?
00:25:45I get unknown callers all the time.
00:25:47I mean,
00:25:47it could be anybody.
00:25:49For all we know,
00:25:49it could be just a
00:25:50super dedicated telemarketer.
00:25:52Yeah,
00:25:53I mean,
00:25:54it could be.
00:25:55Except,
00:25:55you know,
00:25:55a major part of telemarketing
00:25:57is actually talking to the person
00:25:58you're trying to reach.
00:25:59I don't know.
00:26:00I'm sure it's nothing.
00:26:02Well,
00:26:03if it's nothing,
00:26:04why did your lovely new bride
00:26:05race out into the backyard afterwards
00:26:07like her pants were on flipping fire?
00:26:10Huh.
00:26:11You did?
00:26:13You did that,
00:26:14babe?
00:26:15Why?
00:26:16I,
00:26:17I thought I saw somebody out there.
00:26:21And?
00:26:23And I,
00:26:23I was wrong.
00:26:26It's okay.
00:26:27It's really okay,
00:26:28Mom.
00:26:29Does all this have something
00:26:31to do with your breakdown last year?
00:26:37James told me that
00:26:38you came close
00:26:39to losing your marbles.
00:26:41I,
00:26:42I did not,
00:26:43I did not say that.
00:26:44Mom,
00:26:44would you please be
00:26:45interested in my daughter-in-law's life?
00:26:48I thought that's the reason why I came,
00:26:50was for all of us
00:26:51to get to know each other.
00:26:53Well,
00:26:53you could be a little nicer.
00:26:54and I could be from Kalamazoo,
00:26:57but I'm not.
00:26:58I am who I am.
00:27:01One of the great benefits
00:27:02of getting to know each other,
00:27:04and believe me,
00:27:04there aren't many,
00:27:06is being able to say that
00:27:08and know for sure
00:27:08that it's 100%
00:27:10true.
00:27:13look,
00:27:15I'm sorry.
00:27:17I didn't come here
00:27:19to be anyone's thorn.
00:27:21So,
00:27:22if you want me to leave,
00:27:23I will.
00:27:28No,
00:27:29no,
00:27:29Maggie,
00:27:30I,
00:27:31I,

00:28:25Mara,
00:28:25we should be pitying her,
00:28:26not judging her.
00:28:28Well,
00:28:29we're not the one
00:28:30licking down our noses.
00:28:33Look,

00:28:34I know that I keep asking you this,
00:28:35but are you okay?
00:28:38Yeah,

00:28:43you know,
00:28:43for you it is.

00:28:47that you put off
00:28:47your move with Michael.
00:28:49Mom.
00:28:49No,
00:28:50Mara,
00:28:50I don't want you
00:28:50putting your life
00:28:51on hold for me.
00:28:52Well,
00:28:53you know,
00:28:54I don't want you
00:28:54back in that place.
00:29:00When you say

00:29:35take a hint?
00:29:36Come again?
00:29:37Look,
00:29:38you could show
00:29:39a little bit more
00:29:40kindness
00:29:40around here,
00:29:42okay?
00:29:44And,
00:29:45as far as
00:29:45the bathroom
00:29:46upgrade goes,
00:29:47you can thank
00:29:48your son for that.
00:29:49Yeah,
00:29:50but I'm talking
00:29:51to you.
00:29:52And it seems like
00:29:53you have something
00:29:54to say.
00:29:56Is it about
00:29:56your mother?
00:30:00Maggie,
00:30:00my mom
00:30:01has done nothing
00:30:02but show kindness
00:30:02to you,
00:30:03including
00:30:03giving you a room
00:30:04and a board.
00:30:06and,
00:30:07you know,
00:30:08I see her
00:30:09trying to make
00:30:10it work.
00:30:11She's not
00:30:12tough like you
00:30:13and you see
00:30:14that,
00:30:14so I'm just,
00:30:16honestly,
00:30:16I'm really not
00:30:17sure why you
00:30:18have to make
00:30:18it so hard
00:30:18on her.
00:30:20Well,
00:30:20you call it
00:30:21hard.
00:30:22I call it
00:30:23helpful.
00:30:25The worst
00:30:26thing you can
00:30:26do is indulge
00:30:27someone's fantasies
00:30:28when they're
00:30:30not thinking
00:30:31straight.
00:30:33Fantasies?
00:30:34You think
00:30:35she's enjoying
00:30:36this?
00:30:37Well,
00:30:37there you go,
00:30:38using the
00:30:38dirty definition.
00:30:40But when you
00:30:41actually break
00:30:42the word down,
00:30:43what it really
00:30:44means is that
00:30:45someone has
00:30:46seen something
00:30:46that's not
00:30:47there due
00:30:48to a
00:30:48psychological
00:30:49need.
00:30:49So what
00:30:50are you
00:30:50saying?
00:30:51I'm saying
00:30:52that's a good
00:30:52thing she's
00:30:53seen a head
00:30:53doctor.
00:30:55Just saying.
00:30:58Look,
00:31:00I'm sorry,
00:31:01okay?
00:31:02I know
00:31:03how I can
00:31:03come off
00:31:04sometimes.
00:31:06But
00:31:07maybe if
00:31:08you just
00:31:08try to
00:31:09see the
00:31:10situation
00:31:11through my
00:31:11eyes,
00:31:12the way
00:31:13you're being
00:31:13protective
00:31:14of your
00:31:14mother,
00:31:16is
00:31:16kind of
00:31:17how I
00:31:18feel
00:31:18about my
00:31:19son.
00:31:20And I
00:31:21might not
00:31:22be around
00:31:22very much
00:31:23longer.
00:31:25In fact,
00:31:25it could be
00:31:26sooner than
00:31:26later.
00:31:28So I
00:31:30I guess
00:31:31I'm
00:31:32I'm just
00:31:33trying to
00:31:33make sure
00:31:34that she
00:31:35can do
00:31:36what needs
00:31:37to be done
00:31:37before I'm
00:31:38gone.
00:31:39I get it.
00:31:40I do.
00:31:41It's just
00:31:42it's a lot.
00:31:44Yeah,
00:31:44so is
00:31:45a mother's
00:31:45love.
00:31:55time for me
00:31:56to get
00:31:57to bed.
00:31:58You have
00:31:59a nice
00:31:59night now.
00:32:00Okay?
00:32:02Night.
00:32:53It's me.
00:32:54It's me.
00:32:55You should
00:32:56have a bad
00:32:56dream.
00:32:58Okay.
00:32:59Okay.
00:33:00I'm about
00:33:00to you.
00:33:01Come here.
00:33:02Come here.
00:33:04Oh, God.
00:33:05I'm so
00:33:06sorry.
00:33:08I'm so
00:33:09sorry.
00:33:12what I'm so
00:33:38Good morning, boss.
00:33:39Good morning.
00:33:40There you go.
00:33:42You look exhausted.
00:33:44Thanks, Steve.
00:33:45That was the look I was going for.
00:33:48Did Rebecca Palmer confirm for this morning?
00:33:51She should be here in a few minutes.
00:33:53Great.
00:33:54Just enough time to get caffeinated.
00:33:55Let me know when she arrives late.
00:33:57Sure thing.
00:33:58Oh, hey.
00:33:59I just spoke with the building manager.
00:34:01Oh, what do you say?
00:34:02Basically, he said he follows all the protocols in the book.
00:34:05But if you'd still like to make a formal complaint, you're more than welcome.
00:34:09No, that's okay.
00:34:11I feel like I'm making a mountain out of a molehill.
00:34:13So, let's just put it behind us.
00:34:15Sounds good to me.
00:34:34Hey, Steve.
00:34:36Yeah.
00:34:38Did my husband drop by here?
00:34:41Not that I know of.
00:34:43Why?
00:35:01Yes?
00:35:02Rebecca Palmer's here.
00:35:05Uh, thanks.
00:35:08You okay?
00:35:10Yeah.
00:35:11Yeah.
00:35:11Can you show her in, please?
00:35:13All right.
00:35:15It's great to see you.
00:35:16Mm-hmm.
00:35:16How are you today?
00:35:18I, uh, am getting a big fat divorce.
00:35:20How good can I really be?
00:35:22All right.
00:35:23Well, let me see if I can make it a little bit easier for you.
00:35:26Well, uh, let me start with...
00:35:31Sorry, I should have this on silent.
00:35:33Yes, you should.
00:35:36It's been a bit hectic.
00:35:37My mother-in-law's been staying with us.
00:35:40Looks like someone really wants to talk to you.
00:35:45Hmm.
00:35:45Apparently.
00:35:50Uh, okay.
00:35:51So, um, were you able to get the property list together?
00:35:55Yes.
00:35:56I did.
00:35:57I-I emailed that to you three days ago.
00:35:59Right.
00:36:00Yes.
00:36:00Of course you did.
00:36:05And maybe this is a bad time.
00:36:07No.
00:36:08No, no, no, no, no.
00:36:09I'm...
00:36:12Oh, my God.
00:36:15What?
00:36:16What is wrong?
00:36:17I'm-I'm sorry, Rebecca.
00:36:18Will you excuse me for a minute, please?
00:36:27Please.
00:36:36And by the time I came back into my office, the client was already gone.
00:36:40Oh, God.
00:36:40What am I saying?
00:36:41She's probably an ex-client by now.
00:36:43I'm sorry that that happened, Kristen, but this second stalker, don't you think that's unlikely?
00:36:51Based on the odds of that kind of thing happening to someone twice.
00:36:55Lucky me, you know, two-time loser with guys who hide in bushes and terrorize women.
00:36:59Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
00:37:01Now, start from the beginning.
00:37:03Now, you received some calls from an unknown number, and no one was talking back to you.
00:37:07Right, and then there was somebody who was following me in the parking lot at work, and then outside of
00:37:14my house.
00:37:15And now you've received a rose, you said, that was left on your office desk this morning?
00:37:20And a text asking me if I liked it.
00:37:23Well, can I see that?
00:37:25Yeah.
00:37:27Damn it.
00:37:28What?
00:37:29I forgot. I was just freaked out when I saw the message. I deleted it.
00:37:32That's okay.
00:37:33Oh, God. I feel like I'm losing it again.
00:37:36Easy. Easy.
00:37:37Now, last time we sat down, you said you were under extra pressure at home from your mother-in-law
00:37:42moving in.
00:37:45Maggie.
00:37:46I take it, well, that's not going well.
00:37:48I mean, I get that she's sick, you know, and so I'm trying to just roll with it, but she
00:37:54is relentless in her passive, not so passive aggression towards me.
00:38:00And the timing on it all, it couldn't be more worse with this new situation.
00:38:07Do you think I'm going crazy again?
00:38:09A, you didn't last time, and I don't like that word.
00:38:12And B, no, but I think you're pushed pretty close to your limit right now.
00:38:18Now, how have you been sleeping?
00:38:21Not great.
00:38:22So you're tired.
00:38:23Your brain is playing little tricks on you, and those phone calls, those could be legitimate wrong numbers.
00:38:30Yeah.
00:38:30And the text, like, that I can show you.
00:38:33And the rose.
00:38:35That could be James trying to surprise you.
00:38:36Or, you know what, you could have a secret admirer out there somewhere trying to find a way to reach
00:38:40out.
00:38:41But, um, nothing wrong with being extra cautious.
00:38:44These things keep happening.
00:38:46You call me, or you call the police.
00:38:49So, Dr. Liz, you think I could have a stalker again?
00:39:03You call me, or you call me, or you call me.
00:39:27Wow, look at you out here.
00:39:31What's next?
00:39:32You going to clean out the gutters?
00:39:33Put a fresh coat of paint on the house?
00:39:35Yeah, I mean, that's me, Mr. Suburbia.
00:39:38I'm actually, I'm glad that you're here.
00:39:40I think I wanted to talk to you.
00:39:43I'm concerned about your mother.
00:39:47Yeah, me too.
00:39:49That's actually why I wanted to talk to you.
00:39:51Oh, good.
00:39:52I mean, to me, it seems like she's kind of losing it a little, you know, mentally.
00:39:58Yeah.
00:39:59I see it, too.
00:40:01Is this how she acted the last time with her breakdown?
00:40:06Yeah, I guess.
00:40:09To be honest, I wasn't paying as close attention to her as I should have at the time, you know?
00:40:14Because I wasn't expecting it, but, uh, I am now.
00:40:17What about this stalker?
00:40:19I mean, do you, do you believe that she's actually being stalked by some guy?
00:40:23I think that she believes it.
00:40:26And, you know, it's putting her in a really bad spot.
00:40:29Yeah.
00:40:29Mentally.
00:40:31You have to talk to Maggie, James.
00:40:32She's making it worse.
00:40:34Yeah.
00:40:35My mom, she, she millions on her.
00:40:38Push people's butt.
00:40:39So she declares.
00:40:42If you can't control Maggie, I'm gonna have to convince my mom to kick yours out of the house.
00:40:57Yeah, good.
00:40:59Great.
00:41:00Yeah.
00:41:00I'm glad we're on the same page with that.
00:41:03100%.
00:41:03Oh, man.
00:41:05Oh, man.
00:41:06We love you, James.
00:41:08I don't know if I ever really thanked you for making my mom so happy.
00:41:13Okay.
00:41:14Well, uh, I'll let you get back to it.
00:41:20Oh, you missed a spot.
00:41:25Good night.
00:41:32Do we have a problem?
00:41:40It's time we go for a ride.
00:41:42I had a feeling.
00:41:58And when I see you with the mother, I swear I can feel the love.
00:42:02So what's wrong with that?
00:42:12This place is empty.
00:42:13Yeah.
00:42:15He's supposed to be meeting us here.
00:42:17Hey.
00:42:18Back here.
00:42:22So I had to start drinking.
00:42:24You know, trailing soccer moms all day.
00:42:27It's thirsty business.
00:42:29We didn't come here to drink with you, Maps.
00:42:33What are you still doing with that stupid walker?
00:42:37Because you idiot.
00:42:41I can't risk anyone seeing me standing on my pins now, can I?
00:42:48Yeah, yeah.
00:42:50You told me that before.
00:42:51I still don't understand why you used that stupid thing.
00:42:54Because it makes me a sympathetic character, even when I'm acting like a raging bitch.
00:43:00Well, why don't you just kill her with kindness?
00:43:02Because we're supposed to be gaslighting her.
00:43:04It's a delicate act of balance.
00:43:08See, how it works is, somebody, me, puts a target on their heels as much as possible.
00:43:17While someone else, him.
00:43:20Yeah.
00:43:21I hold their hand, look them in the eye, and I say, everything's going to be all right, baby.
00:43:31Get some spinning real good.
00:43:34Well, and then someone else comes along, me, and pushes them over the edge.
00:43:41Looks like someone's really enjoying themselves.
00:43:44That's funny, because I was about to say the same thing about you.
00:43:47Ah, guilty as charged.
00:43:51Okay, okay.
00:43:51So I get it.
00:43:53Good con, bad con.
00:43:55I get that whole thing.
00:43:57Why this lady?
00:43:58I came across this blog she wrote about her nervous breakdown last year.
00:44:04Some love-struck fool breaks into her house and drives her crazy.
00:44:10So, I hired this guy to help me double down on it.
00:44:15Yeah.
00:44:16Once we have it committed, I'll be in complete control of her finances.
00:44:22It won't take long.
00:44:22We'll have it transferred to an offshore account in the Caribbean.
00:44:25And what about the lady's daughter?
00:44:28Yeah, that's why we're here.
00:44:31The little brat is getting real protective.
00:44:35She'll get rid of us soon, if we don't get this done.
00:44:39And chances are she'll be successful.
00:44:42So, we gotta do this thing tonight.
00:44:48Right, son?
00:44:49Right, mom.
00:45:00Mom, yoga's supposed to relax you.
00:45:02Not stress you out more.
00:45:06Honey, you and Michael are supposed to be leaving for LA next week.
00:45:10The move has been pushed back a few months, that's all.
00:45:12No, you mean your life is being delayed because of me.
00:45:15No.
00:45:16Because, you know, there's been a whole lot of changes around here lately.
00:45:18Oh, sweetheart, I'm gonna be fine.
00:45:20I mean, I know Maggie can be tough, but I've got James to help me handle her.
00:45:24You know, he really does love me.
00:45:27I know.
00:45:28He would never do anything to hurt me.
00:45:30Yeah.
00:45:32Come on, let's take a break.
00:45:33I'm dying.
00:45:34Okay.
00:45:37Your job's done here, Max.
00:45:39It's time for you to get out of Dodge.
00:45:49Looks a little light.
00:45:51I told you the deal when I hired you.
00:45:54You get the rest when we all get ours.
00:46:07Fine.
00:46:07I don't want to be there tonight.
00:46:09When it all goes down.
00:46:11Because otherwise this whole thing has felt like a tease.
00:46:12Nah, that's a bad idea.
00:46:16See, first, you don't know how to lay out of the house.
00:46:19And second, you are a little too stimulated by this whole thing.
00:46:23And I haven't been pushing that flippin' walker for my health either.
00:46:28I need to push this snowflake over the edge tonight.
00:46:34And she cannot know that I am physically capable of it.
00:46:40So, you can't be anywhere near the house.
00:46:44In fact, I don't even want you in the same state.
00:46:50Okay.
00:46:52Then I'm gonna need some more money.
00:46:55Up front.
00:46:56Not this when and if.
00:46:58The thing.
00:46:59I'm talking about right now.
00:47:04You gotta be flippin' kidding me.
00:47:07It's like my drunk daddy used to say.
00:47:09A little leverage is better than any beverage.
00:47:17Huh?
00:47:18What do you say?
00:47:19Should we go to an ATM?
00:47:20What?
00:47:21Because you don't want to go back to prison.
00:47:23I know that.
00:47:24And you do not want me telling people what I know.
00:47:33Okay, Max.
00:47:34You win.
00:47:37Finish your drink.
00:47:39And we'll go get you your money.
00:47:45Dynamite.
00:47:49Dynamite.
00:47:54So, you two.
00:47:56You two ain't angry at me, right?
00:47:58Of course not, Max.
00:48:00Good, because you do the same, you and me, right?
00:48:02Of course I would.
00:48:04Good.
00:48:05Because we're all just terrible people, right?
00:48:07Well, we have to be.
00:48:10We have to be.
00:48:11Oh, my God.
00:48:12Uh, huh.
00:48:13Ooh.
00:48:14What...
00:48:15Uh...
00:48:18To be.
00:48:23Whoa.
00:48:31Uh...
00:48:40Uh...
00:49:41Okay, Mom. Good night.
00:49:45Yeah, sleep tight.
00:49:47Hey, honey. Thank you for everything. I mean it.
00:49:54Oh, thank you, Maggie. That means a lot to me.
00:50:09I'm going to bed. I'm exhausted.
00:50:12Ah, me too. Yeah. Well, see you in the morning, okay? I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:21Night, Maggie.
00:50:37I'm going to bed, Maggie.
00:50:53I'm going to bed, Maggie.
00:50:55Okay.
00:51:07I don't know.
00:51:33I don't know.
00:52:08I don't know.
00:52:45I don't know.
00:52:52I don't know.
00:53:05I don't know.
00:53:14I don't know.
00:53:14I don't know.
00:53:15Sweet dreams.
00:53:16Yeah.
00:53:19Yeah.
00:53:32Sweet dreams.
00:53:53Sweet dreams.
00:53:55She's coming.
00:54:12I don't know.
00:54:16I don't know.
00:54:17I don't know.
00:54:47I don't know.
00:55:08James.
00:55:13James.
00:55:14Hey, wake up.
00:55:17Honey, honey, I think there's someone in the house.
00:55:20Hey.
00:55:23Holy shit.
00:55:37Holy shit.
00:55:41I wanna go.
00:55:48Oh, my God.
00:55:50Don't go.
00:55:50I don't know.
00:56:24I don't know.
00:56:51I don't know.
00:56:55I don't know.
00:57:02I don't know.
00:57:08Help! Somebody help me!
00:57:12Please! Please help me!
00:57:14Please! Please help me!
00:57:17Help! Help!
00:57:19Somebody help me!
00:57:20Help! Help!
00:57:22Please! Please!
00:57:24Kristen!
00:57:25Kristen!
00:57:28It's me! It's me!
00:57:30It's me!
00:57:33There's no one in-house!
00:57:35There's no one! It's just me! Look at me!
00:57:37Look at me! Look at me!
00:57:38It's just me! It's just me!
00:57:40It's okay! It's okay!
00:57:43What do you want us?
00:57:45Shh!
00:58:02Hi, Denise. I was gonna call you.
00:58:04How's Kristen Walker doing?
00:58:05I'm looking at her right now.
00:58:08She's actually very calm. I really like her.
00:58:11Yeah, me too.
00:58:12And thanks for squeezing her in.
00:58:14I'd hate for her to have to spend another stay in a mental hospital, even for a few days.
00:58:18It was a close call.
00:58:20I know.
00:58:21She needs a lot of help, Denise.
00:58:23I know.
00:58:24Well, she's gonna be evaluated again next week by the state, but I'm feeling pretty confident we should get her
00:58:29home by the end of the month.
00:58:30From your mouth to God's ears.
00:58:33Actually, from your mouth. You're the one that talks them through these things. I just give them a place to
00:58:37stay.
00:58:37And bless you for that.
00:58:41Oh, um, Cheryl, I gotta go.
00:58:43I'll check with you later.
00:58:46Hi.
00:58:48Damn it!
00:58:49Will you calm down?
00:58:51Calm down?
00:58:52Where did this halfway house for crazies come from?
00:58:55They were supposed to commit her.
00:58:57Yeah, and you are the one that said they would do that.
00:59:00Oh, damn it.
00:59:02All right.
00:59:02I say we find a way to take her out while she's there.
00:59:05You're the husband.
00:59:06You should get the money.
00:59:07We are crooks. We're not murderers.
00:59:10And sometimes we do both.
00:59:12Or did I just dream about what happened at that bar, Mr. Stabby?
00:59:16That was necessary.
00:59:18This is not.
00:59:20I'm sorry I have to ask, but this is the second stalker?
00:59:24You think this is like a real thing?
00:59:26I don't know, but they can't find any evidence of someone breaking in or leaving the house, so...
00:59:32All I know is that my mom was doing a lot better before Maggie got here.
00:59:35The timing of all this, it could be coincidental, but...
00:59:38Well, do you have any pictures of James and his mother?
00:59:42Text her to me, will you?
00:59:43Yeah.
00:59:58You know, you got me confused.
01:00:01One more time.
01:00:03Did you come into this woman's life to love her?
01:00:06Or to rob her?
01:00:08Don't worry about me.
01:00:09I'm a pro, okay?
01:00:12But we do not need to hurt these people.
01:00:15Let's say that I agree with you.
01:00:17There are too many other people in that support house.
01:00:19We don't even know the floor plan.
01:00:21All right, fine.
01:00:23But if I see you siding with them, instead of us, all bets are off.
01:00:30All right, big shot.
01:00:31So what in the hell do we do now?
01:00:34We wait till she comes back here, and we turn up the gas.
01:00:38Damn it!
01:00:39You gotta be kidding me.
01:00:41And what do we do with Mara in the meantime?
01:00:43I don't know.
01:00:45Maybe it's time that we try Max's killing with kindness routine.
01:00:50Fine.
01:00:51As long as she's not on to us.
01:00:54Question is, what are you prepared to do if she is?
01:01:02Yes?
01:01:03It's me.
01:01:04Come in.
01:01:06You see what I did?
01:01:07I called first, so I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.
01:01:11I'll keep that in mind.
01:01:13But, um, what if I need you for some of your old tricks?
01:01:19Well, a real dog doesn't forget the old stuff.
01:01:21What do you got?
01:01:22If I text you, um, some pictures, you think you can find out what you can about a couple
01:01:26of people?
01:01:26I mean, I'll owe you one.
01:01:28And considering what you owe me.
01:01:32Well, I don't mind you owing me one.
01:01:34Those are some of my favorite nights, Denise.
01:01:36Don't start.
01:01:38All right, text me the pics.
01:01:40I'll get right on it.
01:01:57It may be dangerous or even life-threatening.
01:01:59Family history may increase likelihood.
01:02:02In some cases, a combination of medications can work better.
01:02:05Anyone with this disease will need lifelong insulin therapy.
01:02:10It may not help.
01:02:39But, ever since I've eased all the different
01:03:40My toilet's clogged, so I just figured I would use the one in here. Do you mind?
01:03:44Mind? It's your house, girly. You can tinkle anywhere you like.
01:03:50Tinkle. It's funny.
01:03:52I'll catch you later, Maggie.
01:04:04You sure you don't want me to come? I know how hard this must be on you.
01:04:08It's a keg walk compared to what she's going through.
01:04:11Thank you for driving me. I'm just a little shaky.
01:04:15Anybody would be. James didn't want to come?
01:04:19I didn't tell him I was coming.
01:04:22I just... I want to talk to her about last night alone.
01:04:26I know that you like James.
01:04:27Hey, Mar, I barely know the guy.
01:04:30And quite honestly, nothing's been the same ever since his mom moved in.
01:04:35Yeah. Speaking of mothers.
01:04:38Good luck in there.
01:04:47You must be Mara.
01:04:49Cheryl.
01:04:49Come on in.
01:04:50How's she doing?
01:04:51She's a little out of it because of the medication, but better overall than you're probably thinking.
01:04:56Okay. Has she talked about what happened?
01:04:57No, but she hasn't said much of anything since she got here.
01:05:00Something tells me she'll be really happy to see you.
01:05:03Kristen, you have a visitor.
01:05:05Hi, sweetheart.
01:05:06Hi, mom.
01:05:07I'll let you two catch up. I'll be in the kitchen if you need me for anything.
01:05:11Thanks, Cheryl.
01:05:14Honey, I'm okay. Okay, I'm fine. Really, I just... I had a bad night.
01:05:18I'm so sorry.
01:05:20No.
01:05:21I can't believe I slept through it again. I let you down again.
01:05:24No. No, you didn't.
01:05:27And I am not sorry. Okay, I don't want you to see me like that.
01:05:31Yeah.
01:05:32Can you tell me what happened?
01:05:35Yeah.
01:05:40I woke up because I thought I heard something, but then I listened and there was nothing there.
01:05:46So I...
01:05:49I tried to go back to sleep, but I couldn't.
01:05:52And so I figured I would just go online.
01:05:55And I realized that my phone was in the kitchen.
01:05:58So I went downstairs and I saw that the door was open.
01:06:04So I called 911.
01:06:07And then I went into the entryway and he darted past me.
01:06:12So you actually saw someone?
01:06:15I think so.
01:06:16I mean, it was this shadow.
01:06:19At least, Mara, I swear to you, trust me, there was somebody in there with me.
01:06:23I believe you, but...
01:06:25You know, is there any way that the person you saw could have been James or Maggie?
01:06:29Oh, I mean, no.
01:06:30James was asleep.
01:06:32And Maggie can't even get around.
01:06:34She couldn't have done that.
01:06:36So either I do have a new guy following me, which, like, there's no evidence of except my word.
01:06:44Or, you know, I'm, um...
01:06:47I'm losing my mind.
01:06:50No.
01:06:51Mom, you're not.
01:06:52Okay, we're gonna figure this out.
01:06:54Together.
01:06:54I promise you, we will figure this out.
01:06:57Mara, I'm sorry.
01:06:58I'm so sorry.
01:07:00I'm so sorry.
01:07:01Mom, don't be sorry, please.
01:07:03We're gonna figure it out, okay?
01:07:05I promise.
01:07:06I love you.
01:07:07I love you.
01:07:17Hey, you okay, Mara?
01:07:19Yeah.
01:07:20It's just really hard to see her like that.
01:07:23Come on, let's get out of here.

01:13:25If it's an emergency, call 9-1-1.
01:13:29Denise, here's your emergency.
01:13:32My deep dive guy got back to me.
01:13:34Those people, Maggie and James, they're not who they say they are.
01:13:39They could be dangerous.
01:13:41So call me when you get this.
01:13:44Two questions.
01:13:45What are you doing in our house?
01:13:48And what exactly do you mean by dangerous?
01:13:51I know what you and your son are doing here, lady.
01:13:54Are you sure about that?
01:13:55Maybe you should ask him.
01:14:08So what is this now?
01:14:10This?
01:14:10This is your plan going from bad to worse.
01:14:13I mean, he said we're not who we say we are, dummy.
01:14:17I mean, who's he talking to?
01:14:20Kristen Shrink.
01:14:21Oh, damn it, Hope.
01:14:26Izzy?
01:14:27Yeah.
01:14:28I had to.
01:14:29I had no choice.
01:14:30What the hell are we going to do now?
01:14:32I don't know, Maggie.
01:14:33This is your plan.
01:14:35I know that.
01:14:37All right.
01:14:38What we need to do is we'll go...
01:14:39Oh, just shut up.
01:14:41Shut up.
01:14:42Okay, we pack our stuff.
01:14:44And we get as much distance between us and here by dawn.
01:14:52Okay?
01:14:53Agreed.
01:14:54We're just lucky that little bitch isn't around right now.
01:15:00Okay.
01:15:00Okay.
01:15:24Get home safe, fella.
01:15:25I'll see you next week.
01:15:26Sure thing.
01:15:27Oh.
01:15:32Denise, here's your emergency.
01:15:34My deep dive guy got back to me.
01:15:36Those people, Maggie and James, they're not who they say they are.
01:15:39That could be dangerous.
01:15:40Oh, my God.
01:15:41Oh, my God.
01:15:45Oh, my God.
01:15:47Oh, my God.
01:15:49Denise, hi.
01:15:50You're on speaker.
01:15:51How's Kristen?
01:15:52She's good.
01:15:53Keeping mostly to herself, but peaceful enough, considering the last couple of days.
01:15:57Just listen to me.
01:15:58I got a message from my ex.
01:16:01This patient of mine and her daughter, they're in real trouble with these people.
01:16:05What did he say?
01:16:07Well, I don't know the details, but he's a private investigator.
01:16:11He was looking into the husband and the mother, and he said they're not who they say they are.
01:16:16Wait.
01:16:17What?
01:16:18Oh, my God.
01:16:28I just want to get my mom's jewelry box and get out of here.
01:16:32So.
01:16:44Please.
01:16:52What?
01:16:56Oh, my God.
01:16:59I just want to get my mom's jewelry boxes out of here.
01:17:01Yes, that will be fine.
01:17:05Are they both home?
01:17:07I think so.
01:17:09All right, so let's go out there, grab our jewelry box, and get the hell out of here.
01:17:13No, I'll go grab it really quick.
01:17:14You just stay here, and then we'll go together.
01:17:16Okay, well, you should hurry.
01:17:18Oh, really?
01:17:18Because I was going to make a quick sandwich first.
01:17:20This is you hurrying.
01:17:22Oh.
01:17:50Go to sleep, kid.
01:17:52Go to sleep.
01:18:06Go to sleep.
01:18:42Where the hell are you?
01:18:44We've got to hit the road.
01:18:47You can walk.
01:18:52It's a miracle.
01:18:53It was you.
01:18:55You and James the entire time, messing with my mom, making her crazy.
01:18:59First of all, girly, that's not our names.
01:19:03And second, it didn't really take that much effort.
01:19:08Only problem was, we didn't go far enough.
01:19:11But those days are over.
01:19:15What do you mean?
01:19:17Why did you have to come back tonight?
01:19:20Get away from her.
01:19:22It's too late for that.
01:19:24No, it's not.
01:19:26We're going to tie her up, and we're going to get in the car, and you and I will be
01:19:29drinking margaritas on the beach in Mexico before anybody knows about this.
01:19:33Who put you in charge?
01:19:34I have made myself clear from the start, Jackie.
01:19:37I do not want either one of them hurt.
01:19:39And I've made myself clear I'm not going back to prison.
01:19:43Oh, no, look what you did.
01:19:45I'll get her.
01:19:47You idiot.
01:19:48You idiot.
01:19:49I'll get her.
01:20:19Come on.
01:20:20I'm trying to help you.
01:20:27Michael.
01:20:28Michael.
01:20:32Michael.
01:20:33Michael.
01:20:35Michael, wake up.
01:20:36Wake up, wake up, wake up.
01:20:37What?
01:20:38Michael, wake up.
01:20:39Looks like your boo got himself a boo-boo.
01:20:43Stand up, girly.
01:20:45Real slow.
01:20:49I know it's a shame.
01:20:51There's something about your spirit I kind of like.
01:20:55Even if you were a pain in my ass at every flip and turn.
01:21:00Laura!
01:21:01Get away from me!
01:21:04Oh, finally, something goes right on this job.
01:21:07No!
01:21:09You stupid fool!
01:21:11Why didn't you do that?
01:21:12I'll help us.
01:21:13Screw this.
01:21:15Family!
01:21:16Come on.
01:21:21Mom!
01:21:22What are you doing?
01:21:23We're all going to hurt you in trouble.
01:21:25Are you okay?
01:21:26I'm okay.
01:21:26Okay.
01:21:28What the hell happened here?
01:21:30It was Maggie.
01:21:34It's not her name.
01:21:35It's Jackie.
01:21:37Where's Jackie now?
01:21:39She left the house.
01:21:41Oh.
01:21:44Oh, come here, come here, come here.
01:21:51I'm so glad you two are here.
01:21:54We are, too.
01:21:55Believe me.
01:21:56Yeah, we kind of need to get out of the house these days anyways.
01:21:59Mm-hmm.
01:22:00Mara's putting her plans on hold a little while longer, but this time I'm not complaining.
01:22:06Neither is my boyfriend.
01:22:07He's being a saint about all of this.
01:22:10Oh, I hear that.
01:22:13Didn't you say I'm so sorry about your ex's passing?
01:22:15You mean his murder.
01:22:18Imagine how sorry you'd feel if he were the reason that he's dead.
01:22:22Come on, don't say that.
01:22:24I'm not.
01:22:25It's true, whether I say it out loud or not.
01:22:28Have the police been able to tell you anything else?
01:22:31Well, um, James' real name is Paul Northcutt.
01:22:37I know this sounds crazy, but he was conning you out of every dime you had, Mom?
01:22:43Okay, yes, Mara, he was, but he also saved my life.
01:22:47Mm-hmm.
01:22:49I mean, he couldn't have been all that bad.
01:22:50And, um, Maggie.
01:22:53You mean Jackie Turner?
01:22:55Yes.
01:22:56According to Ross's guide, she's been arrested a few times, mostly for short-term cons with James and some with
01:23:03others, but she's a lot more dangerous than her rap sheet hinted at.
01:23:07And we have no idea where she is now.
01:23:09I'm sure she's still out there, just running the same game on another unsuspecting family.
01:23:14Well, she can't hide forever.
01:23:20Would you look at this place?
01:23:22It's enormous.
01:23:26You're looking a little nervous.
01:23:28Are you all right?
01:23:29Maybe I am.
01:23:30A little.
01:23:33I need this to go right.
01:23:35Don't worry, honey.
01:23:37Mama's here.
01:23:39I'm going to make sure that man in there is yours.
01:23:43All yours.
01:23:44And soon.
01:23:45Okay.
01:24:01Hi, I'm Stephanie.
01:24:03I'm Bridget.
01:24:03Yes, Landon's mentioned you.
01:24:05I'm glad he's mentioned you as well.
01:24:06Oh, this is my mother, Christine.
01:24:09Hi.
01:24:10Hello.
01:24:10Well, please come on in.
01:24:14And I'm going to go get Landon for you.
01:24:18Make yourselves at home.
01:24:20You don't have to tell us twice.
01:24:22Wow.
01:25:03You don't have to tell us twice.
