Short filmTranscript
00:01Mom was obsessed with science-based parenting.
00:04So when my twin sister Mia and I were born, she strapped truth bands on us.
00:08Green light meant truth. Red light meant a lie.
00:12But Mia's band, always green, even when she lied.
00:19Mia! What are you doing?
00:22Mom!
00:26What?
00:28Lily! Was it you?
00:29I saw her, Mom. It's Lily.
00:32No! Not me! Look! It was Mika!
00:38Mom, please! It wasn't me, I swear!
00:41Mom, Lily's lying. Look, my band green. I'm telling the truth.
00:45I know, sweetie. Tech doesn't lie. You're an honest girl, and she's full of it.
00:51You broke it and tried to pin it on Mia. Bad behavior has a price, Lily.
00:55No, Mom. I'm sorry. Please don't...
00:57Ah!
00:59Bad behavior has a price, Lily.
01:02No, Mom. I'm sorry. Please don't...
01:05Ah!
01:08Mom...
01:09I swear...
01:11It wasn't me.
01:13Clean it up. Every single piece.
01:15Or you don't eat today.
01:18I'm Mommy's favorite daughter.
01:28Mom, I wasn't lying. Why don't you believe me?
01:34I think it's really good.
01:36It is.
01:42No treats for liars. You get the greens. Here you go, sweetie. Your favorite.
01:48Thank you, Mom. I love you.
01:52But, Mom, these make my stomach hurt like it's burning. Do I have to, please?
01:58So, you mean you're allergic to broccoli now?
02:04Show me your band.
02:06Show me!
02:10It's red! Lily's lying again!
02:12I knew it, Lily. Why can't you just be honest like Mia?
02:14No, Mom. I'm not lying. I promise it's true.
02:20I'm not...
02:21Enough! Eat it! Every single bite. I am so sick of your lies.
02:26She doesn't want to eat. Just leave it.
02:27Are you serious, Eric?
02:28The band is red.
02:29She's lying to us.
02:31No wonder Lily's turned out so bad.
02:33This is all your fault.
02:35Evelyn, are you serious?
02:36You're always too indulgent with her. No wonder she's so disobedient.
02:40Indulgent? I'm just trying to give her a half.
02:42Lily, this is all your fault. You made them fight.
02:45Mom, Dad, stop. I'm sorry.
02:48I'll eat it. I'll be good.
02:53I told you she was faking. She's completely fine.
02:57I can't say anything else.
02:58If I do, they'll just start fighting again.
03:04Mom, hurry! I don't want to miss the fireworks!
03:07Lily, what are you doing? Hurry up!
03:10Mom, I think I'm going to puke.
03:12My stomach is killing me.
03:14Mom, I think I'm allergic.
03:16Give it a rest, Lily.
03:19Please. Mom, I need a doctor.
03:23You mean it?
03:24Lily, where's your truth band?
03:27Wait, you took it off? Are you trying to cover it up?
03:30No. I was just washing my hands.
03:41Okay, the stomach ache. Truth or lie?
03:46It's true.
03:50Unbelievable! You're faking being sick just for attention?
03:55Mom, I'm telling the truth!
04:02It hurts! Mom! Mom! Please stop!
04:05Pain is a good teacher. You're grounded.
04:08Stay in your room until that band turns green.
04:13Mom.
04:15Mom.
04:15Help.
04:20Mommy, did you come to save me?
04:27Almost forgot Mia's gloves.
04:31You done yet?
04:32You really have to ruin tonight?
04:34I'm not lying, Mom.
04:36She's pale. Maybe we should take her to the-
04:38Impressive, isn't it? Give her an Oscar already.
04:41Too bad the data says she's full of it.
04:43Fine. Let's just go.
04:46Mom, don't go!
04:47Mom, don't go!
04:53Mom!
04:54Mom! Mom!
04:57Mom!
04:57You stay put. Don't you dare come out until that light changes.
05:01Mommy, please.
05:04I'm really hurting. It feels like I'm dying.
05:08Okay. Then go ahead.
05:12You're such a disappointment, Lily.
05:21All right, everyone. Let's go.
05:23We are not letting her ruin New Year's Eve.
05:26Finally! Fireworks!
05:32Mom! Help!
05:34Mom is right. I must be lying. I'm not really in pain.
05:38I'm fine. It doesn't hurt.
05:40I need to write my apology, or Mommy will be angrier.
05:45I'm sorry. I'm a liar. I messed up.
05:49But it hurts so bad!
05:52I wasn't lying, really!
05:55Mom, why don't you believe me?
05:59Are you sure Lily's okay?
06:00It's an act, Eric. Seriously, who's allergic to broccoli?
06:04Ten seconds!
06:07Five, four, three, two, one!
06:11Yes!
06:15It doesn't hurt anymore!
06:17I'm cured!
06:19I'm... dead?
06:21Mom, I'm really dead now.
06:24I wasn't lying.
06:26Can you forgive me now?
06:28Those fireworks were gorgeous.
06:30Especially the smiley faces.
06:32Just like my little Mia.
06:34Mom, I'll be a good girl, I promise.
06:37Just don't be mad at me, okay?
06:40Jesus!
06:41Did we leave a window open? Freezing in here.
06:43I'm sorry, Mommy. I forgot.
06:46I'm already dead.
06:49I'm sure Lily's learned her lesson by now.
06:51Just let her out.
06:52She better.
06:53If Mom finds out I'm dead, will she be sad?
06:57Will she regret it?
07:02Oh, wow. Nice try. What, you think playing dead's gonna get you a free ride to bed?
07:08Lily, you are ten! Not five! Act like it!
07:12Mom! I'm dead! Look at me! Touch me! I'm not breathing!
07:18Ugh, a professional sleeper. Still lying.
07:22I swear. She even lies in her sleep.
07:25See? Mine is green. Hers is still red. Typical.
07:29That's my good girl. Let her stay like that.
07:32Fine by me.
07:34Let's just put her in bed, Evelyn.
07:36It's way too cold to leave her at the desk.
07:38Why? So she can think she won this little standoff?
07:40Look at that light! She's still throwing a mental tantrum-um.
07:44I'm done. It's bedtime.
07:46We're visiting Grandma tomorrow.
07:50Mom, if you'd just come a little closer,
07:53if you'd just reached for my hand, you'd have felt it.
07:57I was already cold.
07:58If you never loved me, why have me at all?
08:06That's my favorite! Mom, is that for me?
08:13Mia! You're bacon and eggs!
08:16Liars don't deserve a nice breakfast.
08:18Mom, I'm dead. I don't need food anymore.
08:22Lily's still in there? She's gotta be starving.
08:24She's spoiled. Let her.
08:26She needs to learn that her tricks don't work on me.
08:28Mom! Lily's room smells gross!
08:31Did she poop in there or something?
08:33What?
08:34Now Mom's going to hate me even more.
08:37Look at her! She actually sat in her own mess!
08:40Unbelievable! What a filthy girl!
08:49Lily! The bathroom is right down the hall!
08:52What is wrong with you?
08:53Evelyn, maybe we should just check.
08:56Not gonna happen. Let her sit in that stink.
08:59It's the only way she'll learn.
09:02We should really check.
09:04What if there's a dead rat in the vents?
09:06Open it, Dad! Please!
09:08I didn't soil myself. I'm dead.
09:11Don't make Mom hate me even more.
09:18What? Servers are down?
09:19Yeah, yeah, I'm on my way.
09:22Evie! Massive emergency at work. Gotta go.
09:25Might be stuck there a few days. I'll call you when I can.
09:27Wait, but what about Lily?
09:28So close.
09:30They were so close to finding my body.
09:33Mommy, Lily stinks! She's gross!
09:36I swear to God, she won't win this.
09:38You like the smell? Keep it to yourself! You're not stinking up my house!
09:42Mom, no! At least look at me! Do you actually hate me?
09:48Come on, sweetie. Let's go to Grandma's.
09:51Oh, look at you.
09:55Mom is smiling. She never smiles like that when I'm around.
09:59Maybe it's better this way. I won't ever bother you again, Mom.
10:06So many new clothes. I only ever get Mia's hand-me-downs.
10:11All packed, Mia?
10:12Yep. Three days' worth. All folded.
10:15You're going on a trip.
10:17Yes! They're leaving! They have to check on me now! They'll find me!
10:26Mom! You forgot me! I'm still in there!
10:29Hey! Look at me!
10:31Mom, Lily's still stinking up her room. Should we let her out to shower?
10:35Not my problem. Your dad can let her out when he gets home tonight.
10:39Come on, let's go.
10:41Mom, wait! Dad said he's gone for days!
10:48Mom!
10:52Why? Why can't I leave?
10:55Mom! Don't leave me here! Mom!
10:59Mom!
11:02Someone please find me!
11:08Snowball? Is that you?
11:11It is you!
11:13Wait, you can see me?
11:17No way! You can feel me too?
11:21That's amazing!
11:24I thought...
11:26Mom sent you to the shelter.
11:29Give me the dog!
11:31Mommy! Snowball really didn't bite anyone!
11:35Mia is lying!
11:39Give me the dog!
11:48Mom!
11:50Mom!
11:50Mom, please!
11:52Don't send him away!
11:54Mom!
11:55Mom!
12:01Snowball, can you go get help? I'm trapped in there. And if no one finds me soon...
12:07I'm toast! Go! Get help!
12:09Mom!
12:10Mom!
12:13Mom!
12:15Mom!
12:17Mom!
12:18Snowball!
12:19You're dead too!
12:20Snowball, over here!
12:26At least we have each other.
12:28Moon!
12:29Moon!
12:36Moon!
12:37Snowball, no!
12:41No!
12:42The grass is going to eat my body!
12:44What do I do?
12:46Me!
12:50Evelyn?
12:51You home?
12:53That smell, is that me?
12:59Susan?
13:03Susan, what are you... Jesus Christ, the smell! What died in here?
13:10It seemed to be coming from your porch.
13:14What? It's definitely Lily. She must have made another mess.
13:18She's... what?
13:21Susan, sorry. Seriously, just got back. I'll deal with it, okay?
13:26Alright, let me know if you need anything.
13:29That girl has gone way too far this time!
13:34Evelyn?
13:38What's that fung?
13:40Eric, are you really okay with this? Letting her turn our home into a lambsville?
13:44What are you talking about? I haven't been home in three days.
13:47What?
13:50About time.
13:53What? What is this?
13:56You locked her in for three days? No food? No water?
14:00Relax! She's completely fine! She stole my money, remember?
14:03Probably has a mountain of snacks in there.
14:05I didn't do it!
14:12Lily?
14:17Lily?
14:17Gross! Lily, what did you do?
14:21Lily? Hey! I'm talking to you! You hear me? What, we're playing dead now? Seriously? Get the hell up!
14:32Lily! Lily! Lily! Lily! Lily!
14:40Mommy, I told you, I wasn't lying. I proved it. Will you apologize to me now?
14:51No, this isn't real!
14:55What did you just say?
14:58She's faking!
15:00She's faking! She has to be!
15:03Her truth band is red!
15:06You're crazy!
15:08You're fucking crazy!
15:10Mommy, even now that I'm dead, you still won't say sorry?
15:16Drop the axe, Lily! Get up! Get up! Get up!
15:19Get away from her!
15:20Right! Stop pressing!
15:22Get away from her!
15:23Is everything okay? I heard...
15:29Officer! Officer!
15:37Ma'am!
15:38She lies! She lies about everything! Just check the truth band!
15:43Truth band? You mean this?
15:45Right! Give it to me!
15:46Hey! It's gonna turn green! Just watch! Any second now!
15:52My name is Evelyn! I'm Lily's mother!
15:59Hell no! That's impossible!
16:03Now you know how it feels, Mom?
16:08Lily?
16:09Mom, you can see me?
16:12See? She's alive! I told you she was lying!
16:17Lily?
16:20I knew it! I knew you were just faking! You're not dead! You're not!
16:24Tell them, Lily! Tell these people I was only trying to help you!
16:28What the hell is wrong with you?
16:30That bags her! There's nobody there, Ev! Stop it!
16:36They can't see me, Mom! But then again, you never really looked, did you?
16:48It hurts, doesn't it? And that's just a spark. Imagine the dial all the way up, the way you liked
17:00it. I wasn't even allowed to whimper. You done already, Mom?
17:04Enough! This crap was never meant to catch lies!
17:09No! No, that's not right! The parenting guru he said was the best! It catches lies!
17:15Look at the damn words!
17:17It's a cheap-ass heart rate monitor! Ten bucks of plastic and sweat stencils!
17:23Then the light goes red! That's it! It's not a lie detector! It's a stress meter!
17:30You're full of it! You're all in on this! You just want to see me fail!
17:37Look at your wrist. Screaming red? What, are you lying to me right now? Or are you just scared of
17:42best?
17:44Christmas Eve, Mom. Remember? I was on the floor. Begging. But you only had eyes for that red glow.
17:54Think about her appendix, Evelyn. Imagine it bursting. Like a bomb in her gut!
18:00You saw her dying breath and called it a lie. You shocked her until her heart just gave out.
18:07You didn't just kill her. You murdered her.
18:12No! No, it wasn't me! I'm not a murderer!
18:19Get it off! It's burning! Please, get it off!
