You two stay here. I'm going to lead her away. No, no, no. Stay with us.

Don't move.

It happens to everyone, honey.

Yeah, I know.

It's not like I wanted to be there forever, but I also didn't expect to be

of a job.

Something will break soon. Just have a little faith. I must have sent out a

thousand applications by now.

Nothing. Radio silence.

You can always move back home if you want.

Is it too late to run away and join the circus?

All right, I get it. I wouldn't want to move in with my parents either, but when

I get back, I'll help you, okay?

We'll work together.

Thanks, Mom.

Hey, Dad.

Hey, Punkin.

Mom needs help.

Mom always needs help. It's funny. She says the same thing about you.

Tell her I'll be right out. Okay.

They're always going on weekend trips.

They'll be gone a week this time. Come on.

Mom and dad are about to leave. They'll be gone in a week.

They'll be done in a minute. They'll be gone in a minute.

We'll do. We always have fun.

See you, buddy. See you later.

Hey,

hey, hey. One of my chopped liver.

Okay,

come on, sweetheart. We got to go.

The alarm is on at night, right?

Yes. When is the alarm on?

At night. Good, good, good, good.

Bye.

Don't let them kill each other.

Maybe I will. Bye.

I love you. Love you, mean it. Bye.

Not yet.

Not here.

Emily Chasen?

Yes?

I need to see them.

And all of this with a view to eternity, stretching toward heaven, where we hope

one day to enjoy that perfect union with God himself and with him rejoice in

the communion of saints.

Emily.

Thanks for coming, Ted.

Of course.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

How are you holding up?

How do you think, Lexi?

It's all right.

Your parents were more than just co -workers to me. They were very dear

Yeah, I know.

If you need anything, you can call me.

I will. Thank you, Ted. Of course.

Hang in there.

Where are you going?

To my room.

Ethan, I think we should all eat together.

Pass. Ethan, sit down.

Mom never made me stay at the table. I'm not mom.

Right. You aren't.

Hi. This is Apex Security with a triggered alarm.

Yeah, it was an error. The code is CF3859.

Okay, that's the second time this week, Miss Chasen.

We'll have to charge you for it if it goes off again.

What was it?

It was nothing.

Again.

Hey, behave.

Can I help you?

Are you Emily Chasen?

Yeah, that's me. I'm Detective Whitaker with Homicide.

Got a minute?

Murdered?

Forensic evidence showed they were already dead when their car went into

river.

How?

They were shot.

I'm so sorry.

What could it have been?

A robbery? A carjacking?

Someone wanted to make it look like it was an accident, but it seemed like it

was elaborately planned and executed.

Did your parents have any enemies?

No.

No.

None that I know of.

Ever seen these people before?

No, who are they?

Professional killers wanted by the FBI.

They were spotted in town a few days before your parents' murder.

Have you noticed anything unusual the last few days?

Yeah, the house alarm has gone off a few times. We're not sure why.

Well, as a precaution, I'll station a patrol car outside. Do not let my little

brother and sister know they were murdered.

Okay?

We'll be discreet.

This is all we recovered from your parents.

Thought you might want to have these.

I sent the police report to the state insurance department per procedure.

Homicide can delay payment of a life insurance policy if they had one.

Yeah, I'm not sure if they did or not.

I haven't checked.

This is Emily.

Hi, Emily. My name is Heather McClure. I'm with the Waypomp Research Group. I'm

calling about your application.

Oh, um... Sorry, I don't remember.

Which application is this? For the analyst position.

I have it here in front of me.

I'm sorry, is this a bad time? Oh, uh, no, no, sorry, I just... Sorry, it's

a rough couple of weeks.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

Well, if you're not interested... We can move on to our next candidate.

Thank you so much for your time. No, I'd love to hear about it, if that's okay.

Great. Our facilities are located in Glen Oaks Parish, Louisiana.

Okay. Are you willing to relocate?

Yeah.

We're moving?

Why do you get to decide this for all of us? You don't even live here anymore.

I do now. And we need an income, Lexi. Do you have any idea how expensive a

funeral is? I don't want to go to a new school. I have friends.

So do I. Yeah.

You can't even drive.

I'm sorry.

I know this is a big change, but maybe it'll be good for us.

You only think about yourself.

I'm trying to do the right thing here.

I have to take this job.

Yeah, it's okay.

I wasn't able to find the SD card.

I'm wearing the necklace you bought me for my birthday.

And it looks amazing on you.

Yeah, thank you. And to your sister while we're gone, okay?

Whoever they were, they're gone now.

You're sure?

Don't worry.

I'll be stationed here all night.

Thanks, officer.

Hey, Andy.

Hate to see you go, bro.

Yeah, me too.

You think you'll get everything in one trip?

Yeah, well, part of the trip is staying anyway.

I don't want to take it personal, thanks.

I'll hope to see you later, dude.

Yeah.

Really?

Oh, come on, Lexi. It's fine.

Nose are uneven.

Come on. It's an ugly color for a house.

It's a lot like the house Mom grew up in.

Yeah, if Mom grew up in a barn.

They can smell it from here.

How you doing?

I'm fine.

You know you can talk to me.

I hate this. I miss our house.

All my dad.

I know, Lexi.

Hi. Emily Chasen. That's me.

Heather McClure. Welcome.

Thank you. I trust the movement well?

Yeah, perfectly.

Great, great.

Well, let me show you around.

Okay. We work on a grant, so we keep our staff small.

Four, currently.

Wow, four.

Oh, yeah, Max.

Hey. Emily, Max.

Hi.

Max is our facilities manager.

Need anything? Let me know.

Yeah, are you settling in okay?

Yeah, I love the area. You do?

I'm so happy to hear it. I love it here.

I mean, I've been here for quite some time. Oh, this is my office.

And, you know, look, feel free to stop by and see me anytime, and we're here

you to discuss whatever you want.

I appreciate that. All right, not just work.

This is Shane.

You'll be working with him while you are here in the lab.

And as we conclude our tour, I will leave you in his capable hands.

Welcome to the team. Thank you. I'm happy to have you. Thank you.

Hi. Hi.

Welcome aboard.

Thanks. Yeah, you're welcome.

So, we have you doing plant management.

Okay. Now, your job is essentially going to be to look for any diseases that

might have manifested themselves inside of the plant samples.

And then record it here.

We do a lot of paperwork.

Don't let them kill each other.

Maybe I will.

Bye. I love you. Love you. Mean it. Bye.

Hi. Max is our facilities manager.

Do we need to have that thing surgically removed from your hand?

What's going on?

Josh has a new girl. Shut up. Who's Josh?

Hello. The guy she liked back home? He said shut up. He sent her a text and

that he'd been seeing another girl the entire time. Said everyone needs a plan

B. You're just bitter because no girl has ever liked you. No one ever will.

Ouch.

What are you doing?

You going to do my stuff now? What are you doing? Forging my signature now?

Busted.

Were you going to tell me about this?

Why would I?

Because I'm your legal guardian now, Lexi. Didn't want to fight with you.

Come straight home after practice.

Make sure you bundle up and make sure if those kids are getting on the bus that

you bundle them up too.

They're going to need a light jacket, maybe a sweater, they'll be okay.

Now we do have some breaking news to report to you.

A man was found murdered on the west side of town.

Police state that he was shot in the head as he sat in his car.

This is the first murder our town has experienced in over four years.

The deceased man is being identified as a Max Friedman. Police do not yet have a

motive. for the murder and are seeking any and all information.

If you have any leads, please contact the Glen Oaks Police Department.

So make sure if you have any information at all that you do report that to the

Glen Oaks Police Department.

Now on a lighter note too, we did have an exciting game last night, the Glen

Oaks Mug Bugs.

I know we're all shaken by the news today.

I've known Max for many years and he was a friend.

So as such,

I'm giving us all a couple days off.

It's just a dream.

Did you notify the police about that coworker you saw parked outside your

No. The one who was shot?

tell them that i think someone's stalking me i have no real evidence that

sense can you speculate how this guy may have known them this max guy i know

they made frequent business trips to louisiana with various clients could

easily been one of them if you like i can do some looking around for you see

what i can find out it's the least i can do yeah that would be great any info

you can dig up would be greatly appreciated no problem

Thanks, Ted.

Go, get it, get it. We want to win it, win it. Go, go, get it, get it. We want

to win it, win it. Welcome to cheer tryouts. We're going to show you some

motions, so let's go.

5, 6, 7, 8.

Okay, again.

5, 6, 7, 8.

Okay, again. 5, 6, 7, 8.

Okay, one more time. That was better.

5, 6, 7, 8.

5, 6, 7, 8.

5, 6, 7, 8.

Lexi?

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Hey.

Hi. Glad you called. I know how rough it can be trying to settle into a strange

place.

And then with everything that's happened.

Were you too close, you and Max?

Uh, kind of kept to himself.

Bought me a beer on my first day. He was a good guy.

I don't know who would want to hurt him.

I'm wearing the necklace you bought me for my birthday.

I think he knew my parents.

Oh, did you tell them?

They're gone.

They were murdered.

That's why we moved so quickly.

I swear I saw Max at her house the night he was killed.

You think it's related?

I know. I sound paranoid, don't I?

What did your parents do?

They were efficiency experts.

They helped companies save money, run more smoothly, things like that.

Doesn't really sound like the kind of thing that would get someone murdered.

Are you sure it couldn't have just been random?

No. The police already ruled that out.

Which is what brings me back to Max.

Why?

Maybe he's responsible for their death.

And maybe he's planning something for me and my siblings and... I

know, it's all incredibly far -fetched, isn't it? It's not crazy to want to make

sense of a tragedy.

I just don't know what to do, like... I feel like I'm not equipped to handle all

this.

God, you scared me!

Sorry, I thought you saw me walking up behind you.

I'm surprised you don't have your nose buried in one of your games by now.

Well, I stayed after school and hung out with some guys.

Well, if you keep that up, you might actually get a social life.

What's wrong?

Look what I found.

Is that what I think it is?

Hello? This is Ted. I'm sorry for calling so late.

No, that's okay, Ted.

I, uh, I discovered some information about your parents.

They were into some dangerous things.

What kind of things?

Stuff that goes back to their military days.

In fact, I don't... I don't think they ever got out of the military.

Explain. The government had them investigate serious crimes like murder.

tell you more. It needs to be in person. I'll catch a flight in the morning.

Wait, why can't you just tell me now?

Not right now. It needs to be face to face. Why can't you just tell me now?

Everything

okay?

Did you get a good look at the woman?

No. Millions of people in the world have the same initials. It doesn't mean

anything. The exact same necklace, though. We don't know that.

What's going on?

Nothing.

But just to be safe, I want you to take a cab home from practices.

Okay.

You have to do better than that, man. I'll always cover you.

We should get some sleep.

Yeah, right.

If anyone was out there, they're gone now.

You say that like you don't believe me.

Well, we all have minds that are susceptible to playing tricks on us.

I'm keeping this with me just in case.

Didn't realize you still had that.

Yeah, I got out of the basement after Mom and Dad.

Dad used to take me to the park and pitch to me.

I remember.

Glad I found it.

It's kind of like still having Dad around.

Hey, Mom and Dad are still with us.

I guess.

Dad took me to the shooting range a few weeks before.

He taught me how to shoot when I was a little younger than you two.

You do this long enough, it's going to be second nature, just like riding a

bicycle.

Chance favors a prepared mind.

And besides, your mom and I aren't going to be around forever.

Don't say that.

How about I say this?

I think your mom has dinner ready, and I'm going to beat you home.

Well, we're going to send those out to you immediately.

I know. I know that they were due on the 14th.

We've just been really short -staffed here.

Mm -hmm.

Yeah, is the 21st okay with you?

Excellent.

Okay.

Hey, do you have the... I have report three.

You are good.

Thanks.

That is what I came for.

I'd love to stay and chat and see how you're doing, but I have got to get

out. Yeah, no worries. We'll talk later, okay?

Long day?

I really thought this new job would be just the thing my siblings and I needed.

Leave the past behind us.

And I really do love it here.

I feel like I hear a butt coming.

The past seems to have followed us.

What do you mean?

My brother and sister both think they're being followed.

And my sister found this necklace.

It has my mom's initials engraved on it.

I think the killers are taunting us.

Yeah, no, we've been doing a lot of samples from the Southeast region.

Yeah. Yeah, we could absolutely get some of those to you.

Uh -huh.

Yeah, it's a lack of chlorophyll and pigmentation.

Mm -hmm.

Mm -hmm.

Well, we were originally looking at getting you 2 ,000 units on around the

20th. Does that still work?

Mm -hmm.

Oh,

yeah, yeah. No, I mean, we've been researching a little more of...

Yeah, just like the music.

They end the movie. Yeah, nobody's getting eaten here, but...

Uh,

betting man.

Yeah.

8 p .m. Tuesday. Sure, bet's on.

Sounds good.

Uh -huh.

Okay.

All right, hey, thank you so much. I appreciate the business. Bye.

Ted? Emily?

I'm in Glen Oaks.

I need you to come right away. What's the address?

All right, I have something to tell you, too.

Something has come up. I have to go, okay?

Damn it.

Sorry. Yeah, don't even worry about it. I'll clean it up.

Thank you. Go, yeah.

I'll tell Heather that an emergency came up or something.

Why were you at the motel?

I was coming to get information on my parents' death.

What info?

I'm not sure. He was going to tell me when I saw it.

Can you tell me his name again?

Ted Hamer.

How long have you known him?

I don't know. A few years. He worked with my parents.

Did you know that wasn't his real name?

No.

What is his real name?

If you don't know, you don't know.

His phone was one of those cheap prepaid phones, phones you can't really trace

to anyone. Did you know that?

No, he's had that same number for years.

We may have further questions. Get home safe.

Hey, I'm so glad you called me.

All over the news.

Come on, let me get you home. My car.

No, you shouldn't be driving.

I'll make sure it gets back to the house later.

Thank you.

I was just wondering, did you tell the police that your parents knew Max?

You shouldn't tell the police.

We should have some protection here.

What does Heather think?

I'll talk to her smooth things over if there's an issue.

Thanks.

I just feel like I need to take my brother and sister and get out of town.

I understand.

I have to go.

That handgun.

You should have told us mom and dad were murdered as soon as you knew. You had

no right to withhold that. I thought it was best if we... Quit treating us like

children, okay? You don't decide what's best for us.

Yeah. You say we have each other's backs, but you don't act like that. You

like you're better than us. That is not true.

I didn't know what to do either when I was told. Were you ever going to tell

Of course I was going to tell you. I was waiting for the right time. What about

those guys? Those dead guys that mom and dad knew? What do you think they were

trying to do? My co -worker? Max?

I don't know about.

But Ted was their friend. Maybe he was trying to protect us from whoever killed

Mom and Dad.

So what do we do now?

We stick together.

We make sure the doors and windows are locked at all times, no matter what.

what? Call 911 if something happened?

You tell me, and I'll do something about it.

Because you've done a great job of taking care of things so far.

Who would want to murder them?

Are you still up?

Cynthia, I need to show you something.

What is that?

A police report on Mom and Dad.

A hack into the database.

Says that they were shot with a .38 Special.

Ethan!

That's so morbid! And you're gonna get in so much trouble if they find out you

hacked into their system.

It's the same gun Dad had.

The one that we can't find.

The detective showed me the criminal suspect.

What if it was them? The people in our window?

We don't know that.

Coming for Brandon.

The police are going to watch the house tonight.

Go to bed, guys.

Everything's fine now.

This is Shane. He's my coworker. This is Lexi and Ethan.

Hi.

Ported up a window.

None of this makes any sense.

What could they possibly have done to make someone want them dead?

You know, you could spend the night if you'd like.

Sleep on the couch.

I mean, it wouldn't be a bad idea.

The cops are outside.

I'll be here in case they came back.

Did you bring a gun?

No.

You got another one?

No, but I do have a baseball bat. That'll work.

I'll start home run hitter of my little league team.

You play sports?

Track.

Then we'd be the perfect team. I'd beat them silly while you run for hell.

Sleep well.

I'll see you in the morning.

Night.

Why are you doing it in the attic?

I thought I heard something, so I was checking it out.

I'm sorry I scared you.

You didn't scare me.

You just harmed me a little.

It's okay to be a little bit jumpy.

Is that my bet?

Yeah, I guess.

It's just you gave it to me.

Good night.

Night.

Are you my sister's boyfriend?

Good morning.

Morning.

I made coffee. I hope you don't mind. Not at all.

You want some?

Yes, please.

So, I've been thinking a lot about what we talked about, and I've made a

decision.

Ethan and Lexi are going to hate me for this, but... Hey.

Good morning.

Good morning.

We have to get out of here.

Move.

Is this something you think you can actually run away from? What are you

to do? You're not the police.

I'm just trying to help him.

We should continue this discussion later. I've got to get to work.

Would you at least let me try to help?

See you at work.

All right.

See you later.

What is up with that guy?

I told you, just a co -worker.

Did he spend the night?

Yes. It was too late for him to go home.

Show Lexi those photos.

She has the right to know.

You're right.

She does.

You guys get to school. Come on.

I'm heading to work. The house will be empty all day. You don't have to stay.

Okay. We'll have an officer stationed here this evening.

Thank you.

Have a good day.

Hello? Who is this?

Who is this?

Don't worry about it. I'll clean it up.

Thank you. Go. Yeah.

We do a lot of paperwork.

So good with you

To those left behind, the only dream worth having is to love.

To spare Ethan and Lexi a life of pain.

Though I killed them, I will join them and my parents in a better place.

God have mercy on my soul, Emily Jason.

9 -1 -1, what's the nature of your emergency?

I need to speak to the police.

Okay, hold one moment. What's your location?

I'm driving. Just let me speak to the police.

Transferring you now.

Glen Oaks Police Department.

May I help you? My name is Emily Chasen. There's been a murder at my work.

What's the address?

It's the Waypond facility.

3911 Brandt Road.

Hello? 3 -9 -1 -1.

Yeah. Is that the one -story gray building with the brick saw? Yeah,

one.

Ma 'am, that's a vacant building. It's going to be a satellite office for the

conservation department, but they don't move in until spring.

I'm Ethan and Lexi Jason, sister.

We've had a family emergency.

What's going on?

Oh, my God. Where did you get this?

Oh, my God. Put that down before you hurt yourself. Put it in the chamber.

I said put it down now.

Okay, okay, okay. Jeez.

Who did it belong to?

Shane. Did he give it to you for protection?

No. He's dead. What?

We have to leave town. It's not safe here. What is going on? I don't know.

Whatever happens, I will keep us safe, okay? I promise.

Hey. Pack

only

the essential.

Where are we going to go?

Anywhere will be better than here.

Hey.

I just can't believe that he's dead. I mean, I was just talking to him last

night. I know. And no offense, but he was kind of a creep.

Ethan! I'm sorry. I woke up and found him in our attic. I mean, is he your

boyfriend or your stalker?

Go pack your things.

I wasn't able to find the SD card. Feel right there. Feel the lining?

You always have to have a hiding spot. To keep the important thing.

Do I say it that much?

A thousand dollar life insurance.

Not here.

No time.

Emily?

Who is that?

I'll take that, thanks.

Take it and go.

I am so kidding.

See, unfortunately for you, you now know what I've been up to.

But fortunately for me, I am very good at accidental theft.

See, I used to work for this pharmaceutical company a long time ago.

whim, I took out a life insurance policy on a terminally ill patient, which I

knew because of the drugs they were taking.

A few forged signatures later, and next thing I know...

I'm half a million richer.

So I did it again and again and again.

You get the picture.

So things were going great until your parents showed up. The pharmaceutical

company hired them to do that whole efficiency thing they do.

And it wasn't long before they figured out what I was doing.

So really, it's their fault you're in this situation.

Bad parents.

Sounds like I did you a favor.

You killed them?

No. Not personally.

It's like I wasn't planning on killing you personally either, but clearly plans

change. See, we planned on getting this first, then we planned on making it look

like you killed your siblings, and then yourself.

Do you have any idea how long that took to set up or what I had to go through to

make that work?

Huh?

We? Who is we?

Yeah, we.

Max.

Shane.

Ted. You're lying.

Ted was a good friend of my parents.

I know, right?

He was.

Until he started sleeping with me.

I gotta say, that one was dumb.

You are going to regret killing him.

I didn't kill him! I didn't kill anyone!

Excited.

You too.

Stay here.

I'm going to lead her away. No, no, no. Stay with us.

Don't move.

I'll make sure she follows you. You only have one bullet.

Yeah.

I know.

people trying to hurt us and you know it don't you what call 9 -1 -1 if

something happens no you tell me and i'll do something about it yes you've

a great job of taking care of things so far

First you, then your sibling.

Get

down.

Mom!

Are you okay? I don't understand.

Let's get lucky, Ethan.

Come on.

As soon as we had enough evidence against Heather and the others, we were

to take it to the FBI.

I had all of our files copied on that disc in my bag.

But of course, your father never trusted anyone.

Hi, how's the fire? No.

Love you. Love you, miss. You mean it.

Ted betrayed us. He hasn't. She sent people down to kill us and take the

Why didn't you say anything to us? We had to take advantage of the

Heather contacted you. We knew that that was our chance. But if she went away,

our family would never be safe.

We were always protecting all of you from afar. You were never alone, not

this whole time. You were those people in the window.

Lexi, I left this necklace for you. I wanted to tell you so badly, all of you,

that we were alive.

I cannot believe Ted was involved.

And Shane.

Shane was planning to shoot you this morning. Your father got him first.

So, what now?

Well, now, we're a family again.

We start new lives.

Together.
