Here you go, sir.

Everything good?

Great. There you go.

You guys doing well?

Good? Okay, just holler if you need
something. Hey, Kiri, you got my

Got it.

Hi, little baby.

You doing good?

Here, I can't. Are you guys ready?

Carrie, order up!

You singing tonight?

Yep.

Just another broke waitress in
Nashville.

But you know what? I'm going to have to
come down and hear you soon.

Fair warning, I may not be on my A game
tonight because I am so tired.

You know you can take a rest, Carrie.

Mm -mm.

I feel like I have to keep getting after
it, you know?

I'm going to tell you what, girl.

You might sound like a hot mess, but you
sure don't have to look like one. Come

on over here and let me get after that
hair, girl. Okay. You're looking raw.

You need a facial. Let this air.

Just air it out. Thanks, Mom. All right.
Okay. I hope the carvings in

the tree will still be there in the
spring.

And that time will quickly pass.

His next 100 days.

You're home late.

I had a gig after work.

You didn't tell me nothing about it.

I'm sorry. Thought I had.

Is that my guitar?

Yeah.

Where's yours?

One of my strings broke and I didn't
have another one, so I thought I would

grab yours.

Is that alright?

No.

It's not alright.

You know that was my daddy's guitar, and
I don't appreciate you using it.

Especially without asking.

All right.

Sorry.

Just don't let it happen again.

Okay.

Hey,

you remember where we were two years ago
tonight?

Yeah.

I was meeting you for the first time.

Man, you were the prettiest waitress I
had ever seen.

You and your friends were some of the
drunkest little boys I'd ever seen.

But you were still pretty cute.

Rodney, please, I'm exhausted.

Man, back when we first started, you was
always ready to go, and now you're just

always tired.

Where's Emma?

In her room, I guess.

Hey.

Before you go back, though, put this
guitar away.

What are you doing?

Come on, baby. I'm just playing.

You know I love you.

Hi,

Mommy.

Oh, I'm sorry, honey. I didn't mean to
wake you up.

That's okay.

Did you sing tonight?

Yeah.

Can I sing with you sometime?

I don't know if you want to sing in some
of the sketchy bars I've been in.

How was your night?

Fine. What'd you all do?

I did my homework and then played with
my dolls.

Rodney watched TV and talked on the
phone.

Did he make you anything for supper?

I ate some chips.

That's not enough.

How about I make you something good for
breakfast?

Okay.

Sleep tight, baby girl.

Mm -hmm.

Hey, honey.

Hey.

What you working on?

Spelling homework.

Only a few more weeks of homework and
then it's summer.

Are you excited?

Yeah. Do you need help with any of it?

No, Mom's done. Okay. All right.

I think I'm going to make some tea.

Mom? Yep?

What's pubic?

Excuse me?

Well, I have to diagram a sentence in
it.

said something about pubic policy.

I think the word is public.

Huh? I think it's public policy.

Oh, yeah.

Well, what's pubic?

Isn't that something? Oh, how about you
just finish your work and we'll talk

about that later, alright?

Hey, honey, where's Rodney?

He went somewhere with Joe. He said he'd
be back soon.

What?

Okay. Honey, why don't you go wash up
for supper?

Alright? Okay.

Where have you been?

Well, me and Joe, we just ran to the gas
station real quick.

I wanted him to drive me around in his
new truck. You see it out there?

Are you insane?

Why did you leave my daughter home
alone? Good luck on the cast tonight.

Shut up.

Hey, man, I'm out. I'll catch you next
week.

Here.

Why, Rodney?

Maybe it's because I care about you and
I want to do something a little nice for

you. You're unbelievable.

Why did you leave her alone?

You can't leave a child home alone.

Don't talk to me like that.

I take care of her more than you do, and
I ain't even her daddy.

What, were you at your little waitress
job making 20 bucks for tips?

Yeah, because I'm the only one who works
around here.

You know I can't work because I'm on
disability.

Disability. You hurt your back more than
a year ago.

You're fine.

You know what?

Just get out.

Whoa.

I know I should have been here.

I'm sorry.

You were right. I know I'm right.

And I still want you to leave.

Okay, I get it.

You're mad.

But look at her.

She's been sitting there doing her
schoolwork.

She's just fine.

It is not a big deal. It is a big deal.

This is a dangerous neighborhood.
Anything could have happened to her. But

didn't.

Mom. Hush.

Don't talk to her like that.

Leave!

No!

What? You got something more to say?

Huh?

You know what?

I get it, Rodney.

Your music career didn't work out.

You know why you don't want to leave?

Because you're scared of getting a real
job.

You're lazy.

You've been living off of me for so
long, you don't even remember how to

You're pathetic.

And I feel sorry for you.

Your neck. Are you sure you're okay?

How's my daughter?

As a result of hitting her head in the
way that she seems to have fallen on her

neck, she suffered a T4 compression
fracture.

Carrie, I'm sorry.

I made a mistake.

Please just pick up the phone and call
me back.

Hey, bud.

You riding a Johnson?

Hi, Carrie.

This is Uncle Earl calling you back.

I feel so sorry for you two.

Of course you can stay at my house.

Come on down here as soon as you can.

I'll have a room set up.

I'll talk to y 'all soon.

That's your great -uncle Earl.

What?

He was moved by Aunt Margaret before he
passed.

Well, Lord have mercy.

Look who it is.

Well, I'm sorry about everything. Are
you okay?

Yeah, we're okay.

How are you, little girl?

I'm all right, great -uncle Earl.

Now, you don't have to call me great
-uncle Earl.

Now, you've gotten so big, you don't
remember me, do you?

The last time I saw you, you was about
two years old.

Thanks for making dinner. It's really
good. And the sweet tea is amazing.

Don't call it sweet tea. That's
redundant.

You're in the country now.

Roundhead folk just call it tea.

Okay.

Edna, what do you say?

Who's that?

Nobody. Um, Emma, let's get you ready
for bed, okay?

Mom, really? We've had a long day, and
we need some rest.

Fine. I'll be right back to help with
dishes.

Hmm. Don't worry about that.

I got the dishes.

Well, sleep tight. Don't let the
critters bite.

I think he means bed bugs.

Good night.

What do you want?

Well, I'd appreciate it if you answer
the phone when I call.

I've been trying to reach you for a long
time now.

I'm still in county.

I'm sorry about that.

You're not sorry.

You didn't want to call the cops on me
that night.

You took off with my money out of my
disability check too.

I didn't take your stupid money, Rodney.
Don't lie to me.

Now get on back to the apartment. I know
you ran off somewhere. I had Joe check

up on you. He said y 'all ain't been
there.

Where are you? I don't have to tell you
anything.

We're far away from you.

What do you mean safe?

You cut my eye.

I had to get it sewn up and you take off
with my money and run out like that?

No. When I get out of here, I'm going to
find you.

Do you know what she did to Emma?

She can't even walk.

She's paralyzed.

You know I didn't even touch that girl.

It doesn't matter.

We're far away from you. That's all that
matters.

Carrie?

You're back all right?

Oh, it hurts.

That's what years of working on the line
do for you.

The bigger question is, are you okay?

Yes.

Girl, don't lie to me.

Is that the person that called earlier?

Yes. Who is he?

Rodney.

The guy I was looking with.

He didn't treat you and Emma right, did
he?

Mm -mm.

Is that why you're here?

Well, when you called earlier, I knew
you fell on tough times.

But when you told me about Emma, my
heart just went out to that little girl.

Where is this Rodney now?

He's in jail.

But he's getting out soon.

He doesn't know where we are, but I know
he's going to come try to find us.

We had a fight that night.

He thinks I stole his money.

Well, you're family.

You two welcome to stay as long as you
like.

I'm gonna go back here and get the bed
made up and I'll see you in the morning.

You're up early.

I know. I couldn't sleep last night
after everything.

Has that ever happened before?

No.

But I can't imagine it's going to be the
last time either.

Yeah.

It's a nice guitar.

Yeah. It's the first time I've played it
since the accident.

I see you've got a string missing.

You know, Margaret's got one around here
somewhere.

I'll find it and you can use hers.

So, what are you working on?

Oh, you know, just the next latest hit
that's going to make me a million

and make me a star.

Oh, so that's the dream, huh?

Yeah. So why are you smiling?

Because it sounds stupid coming out of
my mouth.

But you want it, right?

Yeah. Okay.

Well, keep working at it.

But don't work too hard because you need
to get some rest.

Right.

I got to run a few errands.

But I'll be back.

Sounds good.

Just trying to kind of fix that door in
the back classroom.

Well, thank y 'all for coming. I hope
everybody's doing okay. We're good,

Everybody's good. Just a little curious.

What's the occasion?

Well, my niece Carrie and her daughter
Emma have come to live with

me. She's not married?

No, she ain't, Shirley.

Emma's in a wheelchair. She's paralyzed
from the waist down.

The reason they're here is because
they're hiding out from Kerry's old

boyfriend.

And he sounds like a mean little punk.

What do you mean he sounds like a mean
little punk? I mean, is he going to come

around here and cause trouble?

I mean, should we be concerned?

Well, come on, Jeff. Are you scared or
something?

I ain't scared. I just need to know if
he's going to be trouble, that's all. I

got family to protect. I got people to
take care of now.

It's just a question.

Right now he's in jail, so...

Probably not going to mount any trouble
for anybody.

Earl, are y 'all close, you and your
niece?

Honestly, no. I haven't seen her since
she was real young.

She was pretty wild back then. What do
you mean, wild?

Well, you know, she was just... Because
I don't mean to be rude or anything, but

is she even a Christian?

Blah. Could we be even getting mixed up
in people's business like this? I mean,

especially at the concern of everyone's
safety.

I mean, do we need to... Doug, y 'all,
if we can help the girl out, let's help

her out.

Thank you. Thank you, Mary Lee.

I don't think Earl called us here to ask
our permission. I think he called us

here to make us aware of what was going
on.

So, here's my thoughts on it.

It doesn't matter who she is. It doesn't
matter where she's from. It doesn't

matter what she's done or who she's been
with.

You know, she and her daughter need
help. So we're here to help them.

Thank you, Pastor Gene.

So, Jesse, how about you and Mary Lee
and how about you, Shirley?

You go over there tonight, take them
some fruit, maybe a fruit basket, some

food. You know, welcome them to Nolan
Phil. Let them know they're loved. All

right?

Sound good?

All right. All right, great.

Hey, what's all this?

Well, a few friends of mine came by
wanting to be helpful.

So a little bit ago, they dropped off
some food. Oh, that's so sweet. Friends

from where?

Friends from church.

We'll be heading there tomorrow. You can
think of yourself.

Church, huh?

Yeah, don't mean giving me no line about
you not going.

I'm not. I just...

We haven't been in a while, and I don't
have any church clothes with me, so.

Well, that's all right.

You don't need any.

You just come as you are.

We are all eternal beings, so the
question simply is, where will we spend

eternity?

That's why the gospel is so important.

The fact that he sent his son to die for
us in our place.

Should leave us.

Humbled and grateful.

Yeah. And that takes faith.

And our faith in him.

Is what guarantees us. Hope.

And a future.

You know that also reminds me. Of the
beauty of the gospel.

Each of us are sinners.

And so undeserving. Of God's love. And
his grace.

The amazing thing is we don't have to
work for it or earn it.

We simply accept it as a gift and then
rest.

Rest in Jesus.

How far along are you?

Well, I've got about six weeks left, but
I kind of wish it was today.

I hear you. Is it your first?

Yeah, and it's a girl.

Well, girls are the best.

This is my little girl, Emma.

Say hi.

Hi. Hey.

Well, hey, this is Shirley and Bob.

And this is some of the folks that
brought the dishes over for supper the

night. Oh, right. Thank you so much. I
brought the meatloaf.

Well, will you be back next week?

I don't know. Maybe.

We'll see.

Hopefully.

Well, if you are, maybe I could lend you
one of my dresses.

No offense, but those jeans look awful
uncomfortable.

Bless your heart.

Well, Shirley, thanks, but there's no
need for that. She's fine like she is.

Anyway, I don't think either of your
dresses would fit anyway.

No offense.

It's nice to meet y 'all.

Well, now, it must be Carrie.

Yeah. Then this must be Emma. So, how
old are you, little lady?

Ten. Ten years old. That is a great age,
isn't it?

Is my old friend Earl, is he taking care
of you?

Yeah. Yeah, he's a pretty good guy.
Well, I guess we better get going.

Emma's a little bit tired, right? All
right. Y 'all have a good one.

Yep, you too. Okay.

Good?

Stupid thing's stuck.

It's not coming off.

Oh, can you help me with this?

Oh, my back is giving me trouble. I'm
afraid if I get down there, I won't be

able to get up.

Oh.

Aaron, can you help us out for a minute?

And he can fix anything.

And he's a good -looking white boy, too.

And this is my niece, Carrie.

Good to meet you. Likewise.

Hey, he's a soldier.

Well, I was.

So what's wrong, Earl?

Man, this thing is stuck.

Huh.

Thanks, Erin. You're a good man.

Yeah, thanks.

No problem.

Well, we hope to see you next week.
Okay?

See ya.

Hmm.

Ugh.

Don't take this the wrong way, but why
do you go to a white church?

What?

There's white people there?

Lord have mercy.

Well, you know, to be honest, when I
married your Aunt Margaret, she

drugged me to that church every Sunday.

And I didn't want anything to do with
it. But after a while, they rubbed off

me. And they became family. Now, you
know, sometimes they can get a little

stuffy.

But you know what I do?

I put a little soul into it.

Hallelujah.

Hey, speaking of family, what do you
think about my brother from another

Aaron?

Yeah. He's different.

No, Aaron, he's a good guy. You can
count on that.

Whatever you do, Uncle Earl promised me
you're not going to try to set me up

with him.

Mommy? Yeah, baby?

God love us.

Well, yeah, honey.

Sure he does.

But I can't walk.

Seems like he could just fix me if he
wanted to.

Am I ever going to be able to walk
again?

I don't know, Emma.

That's what we're hoping for and what
we're working toward, but right now I

don't know.

Well, little girl, we're going to still
keep praying because...

The Lord Jesus still works miracles.

Anyway, I think Emma would love to have
some folk over and enjoy some food and

games. Like who?

Just some friends.

It better not be any of these people.

You know, I'm just going to call some
people up around town and just see who

shows up.

Look, if this is going to be an attempt
to get all your church buddies to try

and indoctrinate me, that's not going to
happen.

Girl, please.

There ain't going to be nothing like
that.

Not bad tonight.

Yeah, right.

And by not bad, I mean terrible.

I mean, that was just awful.

Well, thank you very much.

Who's that?

I don't know.

You okay?

Yeah.

You expecting anybody?

No.

Because I can go out there if you need
me to. Fine, Aaron.

Here's your water.

Is this you and your mom playing and
singing?

Yeah. We're at the Grand Ole Opry.

Opry?

Wow.

My wife, Margaret, took me there when we
first got married.

It's a great place.

You think you'll sing there someday?

I don't know, but I sure hope so.

Okay.

I love you, little girl. I hope you had
fun tonight.

I did.

Thanks, Uncle Earl.

I'm glad you're all here.

It'd be lonely without you.

He's a sweet guy, isn't he?

Yeah. Did you have fun tonight?

I did.

I had way more fun than I expected to.

Yeah, Mr.

Bob's kind of funny, too.

What do you mean? Did he talk to you?

No.

I was going to say, I haven't heard him
say more than two words.

But he did.

Give me some of that.

Look at you.

Nice.

Mom? Yeah?

Do you think maybe... Do I think what?

Nothing. Nothing.

Get you ready to bed.

I love you.

Carrie, I'm headed to the grocery store.

Oh, wait. Hold on a sec.

Oh, hey.

There you go.

I don't need that.

You know, you've been so kind to me
already. It's the least I can do. I feel

bad.

Don't feel bad. We're family.

I guess I can serve you to buy me some
extra prunes.

I don't have that much money.

There you go.

All right. Oh, I forgot.

This came in the mail for you.

I had the post office send my mail here.

Y 'all ready to go?

Hey, could you just take Emma, you
think?

I think I might just drive around town
today.

Well, that should take all of five
minutes.

But suit yourself.

Will you be good with Emma?

Oh, yeah. I might get a few stares,
but...

You scared me. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Just gave me a heart attack there.

I know.

I'm sorry.

Please forgive me. It's fine.

It's okay.

So, what are you doing here?

I work here.

You work here?

Yeah. Because of my injuries during my
time in the military.

I'm not so sure I could do another job
right now.

Here it's quiet.

Peaceful.

What do you do here?

Just about whatever needs to be done.

Mowing, gutters, fixing doors and
windows, that kind of thing.

Just got done taking care of the
toilets.

Gross.

I hope you wash your hands.

Not quite. That was next on my list.

That's disgusting.

Ah, it's not so bad. The worst part is
cleaning up the gum that people stick up

under the pews. Oh, I'm sorry. That's
disgusting.

No, no, don't touch it.

Here, I can take it. No, no, it's no
problem. I'll just hang on to it since

already so disgusting. I'm really sorry.

It's okay.

So you work here now.

You think you'll ever go back into the
military?

I'd love to.

One of the best years of my life.

But I'm nervous.

My head's so messed up, you know. I just
don't know if I could ever do that

again.

But anyway, so what are you doing here?

I'm looking for a job.

Okay. Is the pastor around?

No. He's at the hospital making some
visits.

Look, I know y 'all aren't like a job
agency or anything, but I could really

someone putting in a good word for me
somewhere.

Well, yeah, I'll do what I can to help
you out. What are some of your job

skills?

You know, I haven't really done much
waitress thing.

You sing?

Yeah.

You any good?

I'm all right.

Well, I'm sure plenty of places around
here could use a singing waitress.

Very funny.

Okay, so you are a singer, or you just
like to sing?

I'm not really sure.

That's why I moved to Nashville a long
time ago, but that hasn't really panned

out for me yet.

Hmm. I see.

Are you wanting to be a music star or
something?

Yeah.

But, um, the industry's really hard.

Yeah? Yeah.

You're not giving up on it, are you?

No.

I was a foster kid, so...

I'm used to all these kids running
around fighting for attention.

So I like to think maybe I started
singing because I just wanted someone to

listen to me.

That actually makes a lot of sense.

Anyways, sorry to get sidetracked.

I don't know.

I miss medications going to run out
soon.

She's going to need proper care and more
physical therapy.

And what little money I have left is
going to run out soon.

And that doesn't even account for what
she's going to need in the future for a

kid that's never going to walk again.

I'm sorry, Carrie. I can't imagine what
you've had to go through.

Is your dad around?

No.

Mm -mm.

No, he left many years ago.

And my last boyfriend is the reason that
she can't walk.

Was that him the other night in the
pickup truck?

I don't know for sure.

Aaron, my life's a mess.

Every relationship I've ever been in has
been totally screwed up.

And I'm running out of money.

Just living off of Earl's charity.

And I keep getting all these medical
bills.

Anyway, Emma doesn't complain much.

But it just breaks my heart to see her
in that stupid chair.

Instead of running around with the other
kids.

And it just makes me so angry.

I understand.

I'm sorry. This is so stupid.

I came here just looking for help for a
job, and now I'm unloading all of my

problems on you.

Well, I'm glad to hear them.

Thanks.

Tell you what.

I'll put in a good word for you with the
folks at the diner, and we'll just...

See if they have any job openings.

Really?

Promise. I'll vouch for you.

Now, hopefully it'll all work out, but
I'm not going to guarantee anything,

okay? I understand.

Thank you.

But this is just temporary.

I mean, this is a sweet town and
everything, but I'm not going to be here

forever. And I have bigger things to do.
Sure, yeah.

So I'll talk to him, and I'll let you
know something soon.

Okay. I'll talk to you later, then.

All right, well, bye, Aaron.

Uncle Earl, everybody's staring at

us. Is it because of my wheelchair?

Wheelchair? Oh, honey, no.

They staring because you a gorgeous
little girl and because I'm tall, dark,

handsome. You see, people around here
ain't used to your kind of beauty.

Hey, Uncle Earl, that's Joe.

Who's Joe?

A friend from home. Hey, Joe.

Small world.

Looks like he's in a hurry.

That's so great.

Yes.

Aw, thank you so much.

Okay, bye.

Well, that was Aaron.

And I officially have a job.

Great!

Where? Waitressing at the diner
downtown.

I've been praying you would get
something. Really?

Yeah. Well, apparently it worked.

Mom? Yeah, baby?

Am I ever going to go back to school?

Yes, you are.

In fact, your teacher just sent me some
of your assignments.

So as soon as you're feeling better,
we'll just knock them out.

But I think with everything we've had
going on lately, it'll be good to have

some downtime.

But I'm sorry, baby. I know you miss
your friends.

Are we going to see Rodney ever again?

Emma, what do you remember about the
last night we saw Rodney?

Oh, no.

Not much.

I mean, I remember you guys were
arguing.

Do you remember falling or anything
else?

No.

Honey, Rodney's not a really nice guy.

So, if we're lucky, we're never going to
see him again.

Oh, I almost forgot. Today I saw Joe in
the parking lot.

Joe? Yeah, Ronnie's friend.

He was just sitting in his truck so I
waved.

But then he drove off.

What did his truck look like?

Well, it was rusty and old.

You know, I think that everybody's had a
long day.

I don't care if you don't mind helping
with the dishes.

Emma, you've been my big helper.

So I think you should maybe go in the
living room and watch some TV.

And get some rest.

Okay. And I think I'm going to take care
of these dishes.

Yes. Oh.

Uncle Earl, Joe is one of Rodney's
friends.

I think he has Matt here trying to look
for us.

You want me to call the police and have
them look for him?

No, no.

I think it'll be okay. I just...

Maybe her eyes play tricks on her.

Yeah. You know I got that shotgun.

I ain't afraid to use it.

That boy show his face around here, I'll
shoot him, show him, look at him. I

believe you would.

But no, I think it'll be okay. Just
please help me keep an eye out on Emma.

I won't take my eyes off that little
girl.

Well, I mean...

Get these dishes. No, no, no. Please let
me do them. You've done so much

already.

Well, you know what? I think I'm going
to take care of it.

I ain't doing these bunnies no favor.
Keep standing.

Go sit down and relax.

All right.

Thank you.

We were in the hotel room, first night
of our honeymoon, and he gets this

serious look on his face. And he goes,

Mary Lee, I think I want five kids.

What did you say to that?

I think I said something like, sure,
baby, whatever you want.

Let's do this thing.

Oh, my gosh.

Yeah.

Let's do this thing.

I mean, seriously, who says that?

It's like something out of an action
movie.

Let's do this thing.

Oh, shoot.

Thank you so much for this, Mary Lee. I
needed this.

No, thank you.

Thank you for the shower last week and
for getting me out of my house.

You have been such a help.

And not just to me. There's so many
people from this town.

This town's been so good to Em and me.

I'm all wet.

Did you pee your pants?

No, no, no. I think my water just broke.

Uh -huh. Okay. Uh -huh. Okay. Yeah. Uh
-huh. Stay calm. Okay.

I'll take you to the hospital. I'm going
to call Jesse. Yeah. Uh -huh.

Yeah. Are you ready for this?

Let's do this thing.

Okay. Okay.

Okay. All right. I'll be right back.
Okay.

Yep.

Hey, Jesse.

This is it. She's going to have the baby
today.

Can you meet us at the hospital?

Okay, great.

It's nothing. You're welcome.

Bye.

Everything okay?

The phone just rang a moment ago, and
when I answered, a man asked if you were

here. And when I said yes, I mean, as
soon as I said yes, he hung up.

Did he say who he was?

No.

Are your doors locked?

Yeah. Okay.

Any mail today?

Um, got a few pieces over there, laying
right there.

So I'm out of a job right now.

Yeah, I heard.

I guess business got slow for a while.

But as soon as they pick you back up,
they'll give you a job back, right?

How should I know?

All I know is I got a bunch of bills I
can't pay for, so... I'm sorry, Carrie.

Don't give me sorry.

You're the one who set me up with that
crap job.

You said you'd vouch for me.

Then they just go and fire me.

I try to help, and I'll do what I can to
help you get another job. Well, you

helped a lot. Thank you so much. Carrie,
come on. Yeah, whatever.

No, please.

What? Listen to me.

When I got back from the Middle East, I
was miserable.

I lost friends over there.

I was deep into depression.

My head didn't feel right.

Doctors said I had post -traumatic
stress.

It's like my mind just can't handle
things now.

Started drinking a little too much, and
I had nothing to live for.

But the people of this town and this
church, they took me in.

They cared about me.

I even stayed in some of their homes
until I got back on my feet.

Your Uncle Earl came to check on me just
about every day.

Folks were writing me and calling me
just to say hey and ask how I was doing.

Yeah, so what?

So I'm telling you that we care.

These people, they care about you.

We're going to look after you and Emma.
You don't have to worry, okay?

Yeah, well, you all have a real funny
way of showing it.

Now you're just acting like a child.

You know what? I open up to you and all
these people.

Just forget it. It doesn't even matter.

Carrie, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said
that.

Where have you been? Don't worry about
it.

What are you doing?

What does it look like I'm doing?

Well, slow down. Can I help you with
this? What is going on?

I appreciate all your help, but I'm so
sick of this town.

Carrie, you need to sit down.

I'm fine.

Carrie, sweetheart, you're not...

You're

not well.

You need to rest.

Just let me take care of you. Please,
just please.

Carrie.

Oh, hi, Carrie. I saw Earl in services
earlier, but I didn't see you and Emma.

Yes, he's not feeling good today. Oh.

Everything okay?

Mm -hmm. Yeah, she just left her Bible
here. Want me to come and get it?

Oh, right, right, right. Somebody
brought that by. It's right here. I'll

for you.

That Emma, she is, she's just a little
doll, isn't she? She's got the voice of

an angel. Of course you know that
already.

There you go.

Hey, did you hear about our window?

One of the windows in the sanctuary, it
got smashed when Aaron was locking up.

Aaron, are you sure you don't know who
did that?

I'm sure.

Didn't get a very good look at whoever
it was.

I just don't understand why anybody
would do that.

I don't know.

It's crazy.

That a girl.

Got it?

Oh, Emma.

You're getting big.

You alright?

You hardly said anything at dinner.

Mom, can we go home yet?

Don't you like it here?

I hate it. I have no friends.

Are those kids at church?

They're not like any of them.

They're mean.

I heard some of the girls after church
say that I should be in Mr. Bob's family

because we both got something wrong.

Emma, I'm sorry.

Kids like that say stupid things
sometimes. Just don't pay attention to

care. I want to go home.

I told you, we can't right now.

Okay? It's not safe.

Why? Rodney wasn't so bad.

Honey, you're a little bit too young.
I'm not too young.

Rodney's not a nice guy.

Maybe it's because of you.

Emma, listen.

The night that you fell,

He treated us both very, very badly,
okay? And it wasn't the first time

I know you're sad right now, but I need
you to hang in there for me.

I love you very much.

Things are going to get better, I
promise.

I finally got her down.

Should I go in there?

Oh, no.

I'll tell you what.

She's madder than a mosquito in a
mannequin factory.

I'm such an idiot.

Oh, now, don't be so hard on yourself.

It's true, though.

It's all my fault. I'm the reason she
can't walk right now.

You know, maybe I don't deserve someone
better than Rodney, but she does.

Carrie, you both deserve better.

I got something for you.

Is that Aunt Margaret and my mama?

Yes. What do you remember about your
mama?

Not to know she was a lousy mother.

By the time I was Emma's age, she was
gone.

You know, your Aunt Margaret said when
they were growing up, she was just fine.

But as she got older, she got real
selfish.

And she was always on drugs.

She didn't take care of you when you
were little, and she definitely didn't

care of herself.

So when you were about four years old,

well, I probably shouldn't tell you
this, but your mother got pregnant and

miscarriage. What?

You know, your mother went around and
told everybody that she fell, but

and I knew that the reason she lost the
baby was because she continued to put

that junk in her body.

We called child services.

She never forgave us.

And then you ended up in foster care,
and we had a hard time trying to keep up

with where you were.

But now, since you're all here, it feels
like I got a second chance at family.

Sometimes I'm afraid I'm just like her,
though.

Oh, screw it.

I have this beautiful little daughter,
and I'm losing her.

Well, you're not losing her.

Mothers and daughters fight sometimes.

I am, though.

I am.

I am.

I've messed up everything in my life.

And I'm trying to make it right. I
really am.

But I'm so exhausted.

I'm just tired.

Honey.

You need to rest.

You're working too hard.

And rest isn't about not being busy, you
know.

Rest is knowing why you breathe.

It's knowing why you're here on this
earth.

It's knowing your purpose.

It's peace.

Come unto me, all ye who are weary and
heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Did you get that from a fortune cookie?

Girl, please, are you out of your mind?

I hope you're missing.

Shoot, Jesus said that. I know.

It was a joke.

Look, I guess I've picked up a few
things along the way.

Mostly the hard way.

Yeah, me too.

Hey, by the way, have you heard Emma
sing?

Yes, I have.

She sounds like an angel. That's what
everyone's telling me.

I feel like I haven't even heard my own
daughter sing.

You know, she's got a beautiful little
voice, and it's just like yours.

You know, your mom was broken.

She had plenty bad in her, but she also
had some good.

And that beautiful voice of yours... You
care for me, Mama.

Thank you.

For everything.

What can I do to repay you?

Oh.

For you giving me everything I've ever
wanted.

You expecting someone?

It's Rodney.

Why is he here? Because I stole his
money.

Oh, come on, Carrie. You told me you
did. I know I lied, and I'm sorry.

Well, can't you just give the man his
money back?

Get to Emma's room. I'm going to call
911.

Yes, there's an intruder at our house.

Yes, it's the old house at the end of
Elm Road.

Please hurry.

What are you doing?

I want my money.

You get out of here.

I'll break this door down!

Rodney, you need to get out of here
right now. How are you going to say that

me? You put me in jail and stole my
money! I know!

And I'll get you your money, but then
you have to leave.

What happened?

I thought you and I had something. You
ruined it!

Hey, I'll get it, but you need to
promise to stay right there. No, I don't

you. Where's the old man at? He's not
here. Of course he's here. Who is this?

You could ask Carrie about that.

You need to get out of my house.

Look, I respect a man's house, but this
woman owes me money.

I know where it is.

I'll go get it.

Here it is.

Now you need to leave.

Hold on.

I'm gonna count it first.

Now don't truck there.

Carrie, where is... I know it's not all
of it, but I'll get the rest to you, I

promise. That's not good enough. I want
my money! And I want it now!

Man, put that away.

Get down, old man!

Sit!

You gonna get yourself hurt?

Just stop it! Give me my money, Carrie.

Take it back to your room now.

Maybe she knows where my money is. Hey,
leave her alone, Ronnie. Leave her

alone. Stay down if you don't want to
get hurt.

Emma.

I am so sorry for what happened to you.

All I need you to do is tell her where
your mom's hiding the rest of my money.

And this will all be over.

Okay?

Look, things could end really badly for
her.

Now, I'm not a bad man.

She brought all this on us.

Now, I just want my money.

Baby, it's going to be okay.

Shut your mouth, Terry!

I just need my money.

You okay?

Are you alright? Mommy.

It's alright.

It didn't hurt you, did it?

No, we're alright.

Are you okay?

Are you hurt?

Hey.

Were you able to sleep?

Not much.

I just keep replaying everything that I
saw last night.

I'm just trying to wrap my brain around
it.

Feels like a dream.

Almost like... Like a miracle?

I don't know. I mean, maybe the
adrenaline was rushing and...

I don't know, maybe you're right.

And if you are, I don't really know what
to do with that.

Hmm.

What were you doing here last night,
anyway?

I wanted to talk to you.

About what?

I just wanted to tell you that I got you
your job back.

Really? Yeah.

Turns out they were looking for a
singing waitress.

And also, after a few recent episodes

I've had, I'm realizing that I need a
little more help.

Definitely got some lingering PTSD going
on that, well,

you've seen what it does to me.

So anyway, I've been checking out a
treatment and rehab center.

I think they'll be able to help me cope
a little bit better.

Only thing is, it's inpatient.

So I'll be gone for a little while.

Wow.

Yeah, I don't love the idea of it.

But the more I think about it, it's
going to be good for me.

You okay?

Yeah.

I just think I might miss you.

I won't be gone forever.

A few weeks.

I'm really sorry for the way that I
treated you.

Aaron?

Y 'all ready to eat?

Yeah.

Pastor, would you mind leaving us?

I think everyone should hold hands.

All right.

Shall we bow our heads?

Heavenly Father, thank you for this
food.

Thank you for these who are gathered
here this evening.

Thank you for your mercy in our lives.

And thank you for just giving us this
opportunity to rest and relax this

evening. In Jesus' name, amen.

Don't get too comfortable. You're on.

Hey, thanks, everyone, for coming out
tonight.

Are you all ready for some live music?

Well, let's please welcome our very own
Carrie Hicks and her daughter, Emma.

Thank you all for being here today.

The last string on my guitar had been
broken for a while, but my Uncle Earl

fixed it for me, got it sounding pretty
good.

So from time to time it may go out of
tune, but I think we'll make it okay.

This is a song that Em and I wrote
together called Little Bird.

Little bird, you're so far away.

Won't you fly away?

Every day I wanna write

Everything go wrong

Hating your song I'm just not that

great

So beautiful,

beautiful.

If you care to hide, and your wings

are tied.

I am.

Did I sound okay tonight?

You know, I used to always tell people
that the reason I started singing was so

that someone would finally listen to me.

But all that changed tonight.

I think I finally did some of the
listening.

And Emma, you were amazing.

You should get some rest.

Yeah?

I love you, too.

to go.
