For the opening, you can use
the motion graphics tool

to create the title animation

and then click on any
other effects you want.

What about images?

Like if I wanted the picture
of principal Harris

to move from right to left?

It's the same thing.

Just select the picture and then
click on the animation icon.

This one?

No, the one with the squiggles.

This one?

No here, this one.

I'm really glad you can help me

with my senior project,
one on one.

Yeah of course, me too.

It's nice to know I
haven't forgotten everything

I learned while working
at my college's TV station.

It's just really
meant a lot to me

and I've come to realize...

-Conner!

- Hi, Ms. Beeches.
- Hey Maya.

A couple of us are going
downtown to grab some fro-yo.

- Want to come?
- No.

I mean, no thanks.

We still have a lot to do here,
motion graphics and stuff.

Are you doing a video for
your senior project, too?

A bunch of us are, and...

Yeah, but you go on Maya.
We don't want to keep you.

Oh no, it's getting late.
You really should go with her.

But I want to stay
and do more work.

I actually have a stack
of papers three inches high

I still need to grade.

And I need to lock up
the computer lab, so...

Okay.

But we can meet again
Wednesday, right?

Yeah, of course.

Just the two of us?

Yeah, I look forward to it.

Yeah, me too.

- Well, bye.
- Bye, Conner.

- Bye, Ms. Beeches.
- Bye, Maya.

All set?

Did you get the deposition
for the foreman case?

I got it.

And the hearing for the
Porter/Bensons was moved to...

I've already
updated our calendars.

Okay, but there's that...

Chloe, I can handle
one afternoon without you.

Go!

You do not want to test the
Patience of a three-year-old

on her mommy and me
birthday afternoon.

Alright, alright. I'm going.

Wait, actually,
there is one thing.

Is it that family?
The family with the...

Phoebe will love that!

But aren't you coming
to the party tomorrow?

Of course!
This is just round one.

You are such a good friend.

Thank you and
we'll see you tomorrow.

- See you then.
- Okay.

The party starts at one,

but please feel free to
come by whenever you like.

I can come early
and help you prep.

- Could you?
- Yeah, of course.

What are best friends for?

That would be great!

And we can have
a proper catch up

before the preschool
brigade invades.

I haven't seen you since
you've been back from Argentina.

I know.

I mean traveling abroad
was great,

but two years away
was way too long.

I missed you guys so much.

I haven't seen Phoebe
since she was a little baby.

Well, she's definitely
not a little baby anymore

and I can't wait for you
to meet her.

I'll see you on Saturday.

Okay, I'll see you then.

Oh hey, what're you doing here?

No!

Hi, this is Lauren.

Lauren?

Hi, this is David York.

Chloe's partner.

Oh, Chloe's law partner,
she's told me so much about you.

She says you are the
second best family lawyer

in the state of Idaho,
next to her, of course.

Lauren, I have
some terrible news.

It's Chloe, she's dead.

What?

No, I just spoke to her.

What happened?

She was leaving the office

and the police think it
was a robbery gone bad.

I'm sorry, this is not something

anyone should
hear over the phone.

No...

There's some very
important matters to discuss.

I'm wondering if you could
come into the office tomorrow?

4pm?

Yeah, of course.

I'll be there.

Thanks. Bye.

Lauren?

You must be David.

Yeah, would you
like to come inside?

Thank you.

I...

I still can't believe it.

Do the police have
any kind of leads?

I know you said it
was a robbery, but...

Because there's no connection

between the victim
and the killer,

they don't have much
hope of solving it.

This is my fault.

I meant to install
security cameras,

but I never got around to it.

It's always been
such a safe neighborhood.

This isn't anyone's fault,
except the person...

That poor little girl.

First her dad, and now Chloe.

Look who just woke up
from her nap.

Oh...

Oh, look at you!

She must recognize you from all
the pictures Chloe's shown her.

She used to talk
about you all the time.

Has anyone explained to her
or told her what happened?

No, I wanted to wait
because there's some...

Oh, thank goodness!

I came as soon as
I heard the news.

Hello, sweet baby angel.

Come to Nadia!

Why didn't you
contact me sooner?

I'm so sorry you
found out this way.

I didn't realize the news
had picked up the story.

There were some matters I
wanted to put in order first.

I understand, but still...

This is Nadia sterling,
Brad's cousin.

Oh, I didn't realize Brad
had any other family.

It's just me.

Brad and I didn't
grow up together,

but we were starting
to get close when he passed.

I'm sorry, you are?

Lauren beeches.

She and Chloe were very close.

It's nice to meet you.

I'm sure you both know

that Phoebe's had a
terrible time of it,

so I'm just gonna
take her home now.

Actually, that's
what I wanted to discuss.

Would you mind taking her
for a little bit longer?

- If you'll...
- Oh, thanks.

I'm sorry, but I
don't understand

what there is to discuss.

As executor of Chloe's will,
it's my duty to inform you both

that Chloe has left
guardianship of Phoebe to...

Lauren.

Me?

Neither Brad or Chloe
had any family...

Sorry Nadia, immediate family.

But Brad very specifically
asked me...

Yes that's true, and in the
original will you were named.

But after Brad's death,
Chloe had to write a new will

and she named
Lauren as guardian.

I'm so sorry.

Chloe should have
said something to you.

What?

Yes, it's okay.

I just, my mind's just
been going a mile a minute,

trying to think of
everything and, I guess...

I guess I don't need
to worry about that now.

Yeah, I can see
how that's a relief.

Oh, but if you don't want...

Lauren, just because
you're named in the will,

doesn't mean you're legally
obligated to take guardianship.

No, of course I want to!

I'm honored that Chloe
would trust me enough

to care for Phoebe.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean
to sound reluctant.

It's just a lot.

It is a lot.

But I know that Chloe wouldn't
have named you as guardian

unless she was
completely confident

that you would love
and care for Phoebe

just like she was your own.

Thank you, that means a lot.

All of Chloe's assets
will be sold off

and placed in a closed trust
until Phoebe comes of age.

Of course.

And unless you have
any other questions,

I think that's everything.

Honestly, I wouldn't even know
what to ask right now.

If you think of anything,
please don't hesitate to call.

Anytime!

Me too, whatever you need.

Thank you.

Both of you.

I'm sure that once
Phoebe and I go home

and get to know each other,
it'll be smooth sailing,

just like Chloe thought.

Welcome home.

How do you like your dinner?

Good?

Do you want to try this one?

Oh, good girl...

This is yummy.

Yeah?

Mommy?

Oh, honey.

I want mommy!

Phoebe, you know
how your daddy is gone?

How he passed away?

Well, your mommy
has passed away, too.

She can't come back,
but she's with your daddy now.

And you had nothing
to do with it...

and there's nothing
that we can do to change it.

They can't come back,
but they still love you.

And your mommy, she asked me
to take care of you.

Because she knew I would take
care of you, just like she did.

Oh, come here...

My GPS says I'm not gonna
make it there until 5:30.

Is there any chance you can
keep Phoebe there until then?

Please, I'm running really late.

Yes, I swear this is
only a one-time thing.

I'm on my way right now.

Conner! You startled me.

Sorry. Are you going somewhere?

It's time for our session.

Didn't you get my e-mail?
I had to cancel our sessions.

Oh, tomorrow then?

No, that's not going to work.

I can't stay
after school anymore.

It's a long story.

I won't be seeing you any more?

Like, ever?

No, you're gonna see me
in the hallway

at least five times a day.

If this is about your project,
everything's gonna be fine.

We can find another
time though, right?

I could meet you before school.

Or maybe later, somewhere else.

I don't think
that's going to work.

I'm trying to find you
some other resources,

but right now I'm running late
and I really need to go.

How could you do this to me?

What?

To us...

Oh Conner, you've got
the wrong idea.

What?

There is no us.

You're my student.

And I think you're like a
really special person, but...

I'm your teacher.

There cannot be
anything between us.

Yes, there is!

Please, I know you feel it too.

I can show you what's between us
if you'll only let me.

No Conner, I'm very sorry,
but no.

Ms. Beeches?

Are you okay?

Yeah.

I would love to hear more
about your project later, but...

Conner, I'll see
you around, okay?

What now?

Hey!

Whoa!

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I swear, some of these kids
should not be given

a driver's license
until they're 40!

Yeah, I'll say!

You should report them
to the office

and get their parking
privileges revoked.

I would, but I didn't actually
get a plate number, did you?

I'll check the lot tomorrow

and see if I can
recognize the car.

Thank you,
I'm really running late.

But if you find out who it was,
please let me know, okay?

Okay, don't worry.

If I find out,
everybody's going to know.

Okay, thanks again.

Hey, it's Lauren.

Is that offer
for help still good?

Yeah, how are you
at furniture assembly?

Great.

Yeah okay, see you tomorrow.

Thanks.

Thanks again for helping
set up Phoebe's room.

She's going to love it.

Of course.

That's what uncles,
honorary or otherwise, are for.

So how's the phoeb-ster doing?

She started asking
about her mom.

- Poor kid...
- Yeah.

I tried to explain things
the best I could, but...

Honestly, I don't know
how much she understands.

I'm sure you're doing great.

I'm trying to make things
as easy as possible for her.

You know, same furniture,
same toys,

the usual schedule,
same pre-school.

That's a good idea.

Changing pre-schools
would be a big deal.

Even if it's across the city
and it closes at five.

I can always pick her up
if you're in a pinch.

Oh, you would do that?

Yeah, of course.

I used to do it
for Chloe all the time

when she got caught in court.

Oh by the way, I picked
this up for Phoebe.

I don't know if you noticed,
but they're her favorite.

No they're just on
her clothes, her shoes,

her sheets, her
hair ties, everything.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Everything okay?

Yeah, just...

That looked exactly like
the car that nearly ran me down

in the school parking lot
the other day.

That sounds terrifying.

You think it was the same one?

I don't know, it might just be

maybe the blue minivan thing.

You know, you buy a
blue minivan and suddenly...

You start seeing them
everywhere?

Mmm-hmm.

I'm sure it's
just a case of stress.

But you're...
You're doing okay, right?

I froze up.

You know that car was coming
right at me and I froze.

I didn't yell, I didn't
move, I didn't...

All I could think about was,
what would happen to Phoebe?"

I know this is something
that people don't like

to think about, but do you mind
if I ask if you have a will?

I've never thought I needed one.

Of course, it's just...

You can pick anybody you want
to be Phoebe's guardian,

as long as the court
doesn't find them unfit.

Right...

Well, my parents are way
too old to raise a little girl.

And my brother, let's just say

Phoebe would probably
end up raising him instead.

I mean, there's Nadia.
What is she to Phoebe?

She's her first cousin
once removed?

- Or second cousin?
- First cousin once removed.

Family law, remember?

Right.

Do you know why Chloe changed
her guardianship to me

when she remade her will?

She never said anything to me,

but I assume it's just
because she felt closer to you.

She really never
brought it up with you?

You know, I did a couple
of backpacking trips

when I was in Argentina
and she could have easily

sent me an email that said,
"hey, just to let you know,

I hope you don't mind.

And I missed it,
or deleted it, or something.

And do you mind?

No, of course not!

I would do anything for Chloe.

Okay.

As far as the
adoption process goes,

if you want to
make it official...

Yes absolutely, I want to.

Okay, great.

I'll send over a list
of documents tomorrow.

Just so you're aware,
it's quite a long list.

There's no chance of the court
turning me down, is there?

No, I don't think so.

Unless you have a secret
record of being

an international Jewel thief,
or something like that.

No, I am nowhere near
that interesting.

I know I've only
just met Phoebe,

but the thought of losing her...

It's just... I just can't.

It's like the weirdest thing,
but that's what she was saying.

It's wild, but...

I gotta go!

Ms. Beeches, I just
got your message...

Oh Conner, I'm glad to see you.

Why don't you have a seat
with the rest of the students?

I realize that the majority
of you are working

on senior projects
with a video component.

So I thought we could
use this free period

for anyone who wants
to ask questions,

or peer tutor each other,
and/or share ideas.

And that's the bell,
thanks everyone.

Bye.

Conner, what are you doing?

I have to talk to you.
Please, Ms. Beeches.

Conner, I'm happy
to talk to you,

but you need to keep
the door open.

Please.

What is it you want
to talk about?

About you and me.

We need to talk about us.

Conner, I'm your teacher.

And I care about you
as a teacher,

but there is nothing
more between us

and you need to accept that.

Can't we just go back
to the way we were?

Just you and me,
all alone after school?

No.

I told you, I can't stay
after school anymore.

It's because of that kid
you're raising now, isn't it?

How do you know about Phoebe?

Teachers gossip the
same as anyone else.

Be that as it may...

What if you let someone else
raise her?

What? I couldn't!

Why not?
It's not like she's yours.

Phoebe just lost her mother,
who was my best friend.

She needs someone who's
gonna look after her,

someone who's
going to love her...

Love her?

I... I love you.

Conner I'm sorry,
but I don't think

we can work together anymore.

Wait no!

I do not want to do anything
that will encourage

your misplaced feelings for me.

Don't do this to me, please!

I don't think we
should have any contact.

No classes, no video club,
nothing at all!

In fact, I think you
should leave right now.

You're going to be late
for your next class.

This isn't over!

A bad case of flunking out?

A bad case of
misplaced feelings.

What are you doing here?

I was just in the neighborhood
and I thought I would pop by

and drop this off
for Phoebe's new room.

Oh, thank you.

How is the sweet baby angel?

She's doing as well
as can be expected, I guess?

Thank you for this!

David actually got her
the exact same one.

Oh...

No no, it's wonderful.

You can never have
too many butterflies,

or as Phoebe likes to
call them flutter-byes."

Well, I'm not surprised David
knew about them.

He and Chloe spent
so much time together.

Yeah, that makes sense.
I mean, they were partners.

She did say he was a really
big help after Brad died.

No, they were close long before
that, didn't you know that?

Brad mentioned it to me
several times.

No, she never said anything.

Or maybe I just don't remember.

There's so many things
to remember these days.

Anything I can help with?

Any way you know how to
guarantee a three-year-old

would put her shoes
on the right feet?

Already wants to be
a big girl, huh?

Yes, and she insists
on dressing herself.

And I'm terrified she's
going to break an ankle

before I can catch up with her
and swap them around.

Actually, I can help with that.

Get an animal sticker,
cut it in half, put one half

on the inside of each shoe
so the animal lines up.

Oh, that's brilliant!
You must have kids of your own.

Professional trick, actually.

I'm a pre-school teacher.

Oh...

So are they harder at
that age, or this age?

Both, just different.

Yeah, I think I'm going
to have to report Conner

to the school counselor.

Just for a little puppy love?

I don't know what
he would do exactly.

Yeah, I did see that.

It's kind of scary.

Don't report the poor kid.

He'd be so embarrassed.

Besides, he'll probably be in
love with someone new next week.

- You think?
- Yes.

I get three proposals
a year from my kids.

I keep telling them to come back
when they're all grown up

but so far, no repeat offers.

Fickle love?

Or it might be because
the oldest one's not yet 12.

I may get lucky in
another ten years yet!

You are probably right.

Do you mind if I ask?

Has David said anything about
the police finding the killer?

No.

They have not found any leads.

I still can't believe
it happened there.

David said it was
such a safe area.

I know.

Thank you for this.

You're welcome.

So sorry about the wait,

there was some kind of
mix-up at the counter.

That's okay, thank you.

What's so important
that you feel the need

to buy me real coffee and
not just the machine sludge

from the teacher's lounge?

Well I do have a really
big favor to ask you.

I'm going to start the official
adoption process for Phoebe.

That's wonderful!

Thank you.

And seeing as you've
known me the longest,

since I was a student teacher
and you helped me get this job.

I was wondering if you would
write a letter of recommendation

for me for the court?

I'd be delighted.

- Really?
- Of course!

How could you doubt it?

I don't know why
I was so nervous.

Maybe because
it's important to you?

Yes, there's nothing
more important to me

in my life right now.

See, you're a parent already.

I can get you that letter
by the end of next week.

You're sure you don't mind?

Are you kidding?

If anyone deserves to
be a parent, it's you.

- You okay?
- Yeah, yeah...

Christine!

I need an ambulance!

Hi, I need an ambulance to
lemon bakery on elm street.

Yeah.

Oh my gosh, what happened?

Is she okay?

Do you have anyone
that can help her?

Christine?

Christine, can you hear me?

Christine?

Are you okay?

Christine!

Principal Harris?
Do you have a minute?

Lauren sure, come on in.

Actually, I just
got off the phone

with Christine's husband, Mark.

He wanted me to let you
know that Christine

is in serious,
but stable condition.

Oh, that's good news!

He also said Christine was
extremely lucky you were there

and acted so quickly.

He couldn't praise you enough.

Another few moments,
they might've lost her.

Really?

That would be...

That's...

Do they have any idea
what happened to her?

Well, they've ruled out
stroke and heart attack,

but I believe they're still
running tests on further causes.

Mark seems to think it
could take some time.

Yeah, of course.

But what did you want
to see me about?

Oh, it doesn't
need to be this minute.

No please, no time
like the present.

Well as you know,

my friend Chloe left custody
of her little girl to me

and I would really like to start
the adoption process for her.

So I was wondering if
you'd be willing to write me

a letter of recommendation
so I can submit it to the court?

Lauren, you're a great
comp-sci teacher.

I would be happy more than
happy to write you a letter.

That is assuming Mark plumber
doesn't beat me to it.

Okay, we'll get the
information from you

and we'll have Shirley
write it up

and I'll sign whatever you need.

- Thank you.
- Great, have a good day.

Go!

Okay.

- Watch me!
- Let's see...

How many times can you do it?

Come on...

Have you seen what got
posted on the school's website?

It's all over the school
wide e-messaging board.

No, what?

What teacher and student
are going at it?

That's terrible!

What's up with the fruit emojis?

Seriously?

You don't know what that means?

Right.

Who do you think it could be?

I bet you it's one of
the athletic coaches.

It usually is with these things.

You don't honestly
think it's true, do you?

You're the one that
said it was terrible.

It's terrible that someone
would post a vicious

and unfounded rumor
without even knowing anything.

Who posted it?

Uh, I don't know.

The user name does look funny.

Maybe you're right.

Then again, no smoke
without fire, right?

Hey, did you know that
your sweater's buttoned wrong?

Oh.

Phoebe insisted on doing
these buttons all by herself

and I didn't
even think to check.

I heard this
parenting thing was tiring,

but now that I’m
actually doing it...

I got through Joshy's
first three years

on cat naps and caffeine.

And I was headed
for a breakdown.

Please tell me it gets
easier as they get older.

I just learned to ask for help.

And you know what?
People were happy to help.

They enjoyed it.

Well there's Nadia,
who's Phoebe's dad's cousin,

she offered help.

And David, who's
Chloe's law partner.

He's really good with her.

A man who's good with kids?

If he is good-looking
and single and employed,

you better snap him up quick.

He is all three, but romance
is the last thing on my mind!

Okay, but don't forget
his offer to help.

I've been meaning to ask you.

Did you ever get the plate
number on that car

that nearly ran me down?

No, I looked in the lot and
I didn't see any cars like it.

Oh.

Maybe they're
parking off campus.

Maybe I'm just being paranoid.

Hey, mom-tuition is a thing.

It's averted more
than one disaster for me.

Don't ignore it.

You know, I saw Conner Marrin
in the student lot

a couple of weeks ago
filming for his senior project.

He might have caught
something on tape.

Okay thanks,
I'll check with him.

I didn't say caffeine
was always a bad thing.

Can I get you a coffee?

Two creams two sugars, right?

How'd you know?

Easy to remember, it's the same
way that Christine takes it.

I am so glad to hear
she's doing better.

Me too.

Okay, I'll see you in sec.

- Thanks.
- Okay.

Hey Conner, can I talk
to you for a minute?

Excuse me guys,

Ms. Beeches and I need to go
talk about my "project."

Hey listen, I heard you
were filming

in the student parking lot
a few weeks ago?

Yeah, I sure was.

Well I need you to
look at your footage

and see if you can
find a car for me.

It's either black or Navy blue,
four door, silver hubcaps.

Can you do that for me?

I'd be so happy
to do that for you.

I don't know what kind of games
you're playing Conner

and I don't really care.

But just if you could look,
it's really important.

Sure thing, Ms. Peaches!

And you think the
school's website hack

was supposed to be about you?

The way those boys
were snickering,

I'd say they at
least thought so.

There's no truth to it,
of course.

You have confirmed
it's a hack, right?

It definitely didn't come
from an official account

associated with any teacher,
student, or parent.

We're not sure how the poster
got access to the site.

And there's something else
I should tell you.

The other day, Conner Marrin...

He told me that he loved me.

And what did you say?

I said that I was
very sorry if he thought

I had encouraged anything,
and I felt nothing more

than what a teacher
would feel for a student.

I see.

Well, crushes do happen,
of course.

But this post
was very disturbing.

And you have no idea
who it could have been?

We still have our
it team working on it.

But they're hardly the FBI.

In the meantime,
the offending post

has been removed from the site.

Yeah, after half of the student
body probably took screenshots

and sent it to the other half.

We deleted the
user profile as well.

Nothing inappropriate happened
between Conner and I.

I know that, you know that.

But I know that sometimes
all it takes is an accusation

in order to trigger
an investigation.

There is nothing to
investigate at this point.

No names have been named,

no real accusations
have even been made, okay?

Okay.

Hey, could Conner
have hacked the website

and posted it himself?

I didn't mean to imply...

He does have access
to the computer lab.

Yes he does for
his student projects,

but computer hacking
and the editing software,

they're two very
different things.

So you know for sure he's not
capable of this kind of thing?

No, I don't know for sure.

But he's never said anything to
make me believe that he could.

Well, that just may mean
that he's smart enough

not to brag to his teacher
about his hacking skills.

I will make a note
of everything you said

and add it to the file.

Thank you.

Uncle David's here!

Hi Phoebe, how are you?

I come bearing a mountain of
legal paper work and dinner.

What'll it be first?

I know Phoebe's vote.

I second that.

Who am I to go
against the majority?

- Dinner it is.
- Come on.

I'm about to share with you the
greatest secret in the world.

What's that?

You'll see.

She turns her nose up at
three quarters of the food

I've given her and the rest,
I'm not sure makes it in

and what just ends up
on her shirt.

- Do you like it?
- That's yummy!

It's not junk food, is it?

No, it's jicama.

Jicama?

She's got a sophisticated
palate for a three-year-old.

Don't you?

So the phoeb-ster crashed out
pretty hard, huh?

Yeah.

She must be having
a growth spurt.

Because she is either go-go-go,
or snooze-snooze-snooze.

You know, I don't think Chloe
ever actually told me

how you two met.

Was it after she moved
back here?

Law school.

She was the prettiest, smartest
girl in the whole class.

Yeah, I don't doubt that at all.

But she'd already found
Brad at that point,

so the rest of us had
to worship from afar.

How did you two become partners?

A classmate reconnected us
when he found out

we both wanted to start
our own family law practices.

- That worked out well.
- Yeah.

And the more we got
to know each other,

we found out that we
had a lot in common.

She was an amazing lawyer
and human being.

Yeah, she really was.

To Chloe.

To Chloe.

Come on everybody,
please take your seats.

Anyone care to share the joke?

You haven't seen the latest post

on the school's website
messaging board, have you?

Obviously, it's hilarious.

All right, that
is enough of that.

Ms. Beeches, you're
wanted in the office.

Ooooo...

Hey!

I will be monitoring you until
Mr. Lee arrives to take over.

I'm sure you'll
have plenty to work on.

Ms. Beeches.

Please have a seat.

Some disturbing accusations
have been made

and must be taken seriously.

I thought you said
there were no accusations.

That no names had been named.

Obviously, things have changed.

Okay, what is the accusation
and who's made it?

The "what" is that you
had a relationship

of a sexual nature
with Conner Marrin.

The "who" is unknown
at this point.

And it wasn't Conner
or his parents?

He denied anything
inappropriate happened,

but he wasn't very convincing.

He was laughing and
smiling the whole time.

That's because this
whole thing is a joke to him.

Of course, his parents are
very concerned and I've been

fielding emails and calls
from other parents all day, too.

So you're accepting insinuations
from an anonymous hacker,

even though the student involved
denied anything happened?

But not convincingly.

I'm not smiling or laughing.

And I would like to state
for the record

that I have never behaved
inappropriately

with Conner Marrin,
or any other student.

Is that convincing enough?

I'm sorry.

I don't know if Conner can
hack into the school website.

But I do know he could make
the video that was posted today.

I taught him myself.

Be that as it may, it
doesn't prove that Conner

did anything wrong, nor that
you didn't do anything wrong.

I'm not going to lie, Lauren.

Your position is not
as strong as I'd like.

Anything could tip the balance.

Even the appearance
of impropriety

can be too much
at a time like this.

Even when I've done
nothing wrong?

Right or wrong, you need
to avoid Conner Marrin

until this is cleared up.

Both inside and outside
the school.

Believe me, I will!

I have never so much
as laid eyes on Conner

outside of school grounds.

Good.

Okay, well,

that's all I have
for the moment,

but I will keep you both
updated as I know more.

Is there anything on the status
of who the hacker is?

It is still working on it.

Something to do with changing
user names and dummy emails.

Right.

Maybe they should bring
in the FBI after all.

I can't believe it...

You think you know somebody...

Lauren!

Is everything okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'll catch up with you later.

Okay.

- Do you believe this?
- I know.

Did you find out
which pediatrician

Phoebe's been seeing?

Yeah, they were
in Chloe's files.

I'll email them over
to you right now.

Where are you?

Just down on west elm.

Nadia recommended this cute
little children's boutique

that's having a big sale.

It's right by lemon bakery.

Oh, I love the lemon bakery.

I'm in there almost
every other day.

Me too, except that's
where my friend...

Lauren?

Did I lose you?

No, it's just that
Navy blue minivan thing

is happening again.

Thanks for the doctor's info,
I should go.

Enough of this.

Excuse me.

I don't know what kind
of games you're playing,

but this isn't funny.

I've got a picture
of your license plate

and I'm going to report you...

Oh I'm sorry,
I've made a mistake.

Did you know your lights
keep going on and off?

Oh, these new cars!

I'm borrowing my
grandson's for the day.

He doesn't happen to go to
Grant high school, does he?

Fifteen years ago.

Michael Tate, do you know him?

No, I was thinking
of someone else.

- Sorry to have bothered you.
- No bother.

Have a nice day, dear.

Oh...

Don't touch me!

I was only trying to help.

What are you doing here?

Nothing, just running into you.

What does that mean?
Are you stalking me?

Stalking you?
Of course not.

Why would I be...?

Why are you doing this to me?

Why am I doing this to you?

Why are you doing this to me?

Do you have any idea how
much trouble you're causing?

I didn't do anything
but love you.

This is what you wanted!

I never asked for this!

I don't even know why
you're acting this way.

Me? Why are you acting
this way?

After all the time we've shared,
the hours we've spent talking.

I told you things
I've never told anybody!

Conner, you need to back up.

We shouldn't even be
talking to each other.

No more avoiding me,
you're gonna talk to me.

You owe me answers!

Lauren?

Hi, I thought that was you!

Who's this?

A student of yours at school?

That's right, I saw you
the other day.

He just was saying hi,
and I don't want to keep him.

How nice you just ran
into each other.

Yeah well, I've gotta go.

See you later.

Are you okay? Where's Phoebe?

She's fine, she's with a sitter.

Let's find somewhere warm
for you

to have something to drink.

I'm sorry...

So I guess the puppy love
didn't go away on its own.

No, you can say that again.

I don't even want
to get into it.

I'm so sorry you're
going through so much

and all at once.

I know, I feel like
I'm losing my mind.

What do you mean?

I can't shake this feeling
that I'm being followed.

Every time I try and do
something about it,

I don't know.

You're not sure if you're
being followed or not?

I thought I had mom-tution
and it was trying

to tell me something.

But now I'm not sure,
or maybe it's just broken.

- Well...
- What?

Oh, please don't
take this the wrong way.

I'm sure this has nothing
to do with you, okay?

Okay...

It's just in my job
I see a lot of kids,

these sweet baby angels,
and I see a lot of parents.

Of course.

And sometimes I just
can't help but think that

there would be no shame
if they handed them over

to someone better
suited for the job.

Oh.

But not you!

Right, yeah okay.

What I'm trying to say is
being a parent is really special

and some people just don't
feel up for it and that's okay.

Yeah, I guess that makes sense.

Oh gosh.

I'm trying to make you
feel better

and I'm doing a
terrible job of it.

How was shopping?

It was fun.

I picked up a couple of
things for Phoebe's room

and a grocery store shop

and I had to ask three
different clerks

before I could get the Jicama.

- Jicama?
- Yeah.

David keyed me in on the secret,
it's one of Phoebe's favorites.

He certainly takes a lot
of interest in her,

almost as if...

I'm so sorry, words spoken
are like eggs broken.

It's okay, you can go on.

Almost as if she was his own?

Don't get me wrong,
David is super sweet.

It's just that, you know,
most men barely pay attention

to their own kids,
let alone someone else's.

Yeah, I actually
had the same thought.

Right?

And Chloe got pregnant
right after she started

her partnership with David
after years of trying,

part of me always wondered.

He actually did offer
to take Phoebe

if anything was to
ever happen to me.

He didn't? What did you say?

Honestly, I'm still
thinking about it.

This is ridiculous!

Chloe loved Brad.

She never would have
cheated on him!

I just know that Brad worried.

It wouldn't be the first time
two people working together...

But of course, you knew her
way better than I did.

You know what? I should go.

Can I give you a ride home?

- It's no trouble.
- No, it's okay.

I think I'm going to stay here
just a few more minutes.

Are you sure? I don't mind.

Yeah, I'm sure. Thank you.

You're very kind.

Okay, but give that
sweet baby angel

a kiss for me, okay?

- Will do.
- Okay.

Excuse me, I didn't want
to interrupt you,

but I wanted to
ask how your friend

from the other day is doing?

She's doing much better.

Thank you so much for asking.

I was so worried.

The police said they think
that the coffee might have been

somehow been tainted,
or poisoned.

Poisoned?

I never heard
anything about that.

Who would want to
poison Christine?

I thought her name was Lauren.

Why would you think that?

Because that was
the name on the cup,

the one that the cops took away.

I'm glad she's okay.

Okay, thank you
for the update, Mark.

Yeah, and let me know if
there's anything I can do,

like anything at all.

Okay. Good night, bye.

Christine finally
goes home tomorrow.

Well that's great!

You can say that again, like
three or four hundred times.

We have been so
worried about her!

This whole thing
must be so scary for you.

But it's all okay now.

Christine is going
to be okay now.

Yeah.

Did they say what
happened to her?

I don't think so.

I don't think
they entirely know.

You know, we can do the will
another time if you like.

Oh no, you came over
all this way.

It's no trouble, I was already
in the neighborhood.

Oh really? Why?

Just running some errands,
nothing serious.

So, have you thought
about who you'd like

Phoebe's next guardian to be?

I was kinda hoping she
wouldn't need another one.

Of course, I'm sorry.

- I didn't mean...
- I know.

You know, can I actually
take a rain check?

I'm more tired than I thought.

Yeah, of course,
you do look a little shaky.

Is everything else okay?

Not that you need anything else
on your plate right now?

There's this thing
at school, but...

Actually, I don't want
to talk about it.

I'm going to call it a night.

Enough said.

Well, I'm glad your friend
is doing better.

Me too.

- Have a good night.
- Night.

Phoebe?

Phoebe?

No, please!

No!

Phoebe! No, please!

How's my little girl
this morning, huh?

How's my little girl?

Ms. Beeches?

Can I talk you about something?

Yeah of course, come on over.

I was working in the computer
lab yesterday after school

and someone left this
thumb drive at my station.

Okay, I'll make sure to take it
to lost and found.

Actually, that's not all.

I opened it up to see if I could
tell who it belonged to and...

I think you should take a look.

Okay.

Especially at the file titled,
umm, "thirsty."

Umm...

I'm sorry, who did you say
you thought this belonged to?

I've seen his presentation,
so I'm pretty sure.

It's Conner Marrin's.

Disgusting.

It's disgraceful that...

And with a student?

No smoke without fire.

Anything I need to know?

Nothing I'm sure
you don't know already.

Seriously...

It's Conner Marrin's.

It has the opening sequence
from his senior project

and some other videos
that prove that...

Well, they prove
that he's obsessed.

With you?

How did this wind up
in your possession?

It was left at a
computer station.

One of the students, Maya
Thompson brought it to me.

I will make sure
our it team gets it.

You're not even going
to look at it?

I will, at the
appropriate time and place.

I also wanted to follow
up on my request

for a recommendation letter.

Yes, I haven't been able to
write that letter just yet.

I know you're very busy,

but this is really
important to me.

I could send you an example
of what this letter would...

Lauren, there is no way
I can write you

any kind of recommendation
letter like this

while you're
under investigation.

What?

I'm under investigation?

I thought you said the hacker
was under investigation.

We're looking into
that too, of course.

I have been nothing but
up front about everything

and I'm still getting blamed
based on some vicious rumors

and a teenager stalking me?

Look, even if
Conner Marrin's videos

prove he was stalking you
and not just gathering footage

for his senior project,

it doesn't prove you
didn't also have

an inappropriate
relationship with him.

You think this is my fault?

That I did something
with Conner, with a child?

That's not what I said.

But there's no way I can write
you any kind of recommendation

until this matter is cleared up.

Home again, jiggity jig.

Don't go too far Phoebe,
it's almost dinner time.

Okay, I won't.

You have one new
wireless voice message.

Dear Ms. Peaches,
under the bleachers,

with her favorite pet.

If you want to play,
and get that a,

better make me say, 'oh yes!'

Thank you.

Where did you get this?

From the flower pot... here.

How did that fall?

Here, just wait here.
Just hold on.

Here, come quickly.

Yeah, someone has broken
into my house

and I think they're still here.

959 Porter street.

Send someone, please hurry!

This is the police,
we're coming in!

You gonna be okay for a minute?

Want to play with your toys?

Okay, I'll be right back.

Thank you so much for coming.

There's no sign of forced entry,
but your back door was unlocked.

Con... the intruder must have
ran out when you guys arrived.

He got scared off.

Is there anything else
disturbed?

Other than the flowers?

No, nothing in Phoebe's room
and nothing here.

But let's check
the rest of the house.

Nothing seems to
be missing in here.

What about this?

I have never seen
that before in my life.

I swear, are there any more?

I don't suppose
this is yours either?

No, it's not mine, I swear.

I am a teacher at
Grant high school, but I...

I have this student and recently
he has started stalking me.

I think he might be the one
that hid the camera

and is trying to watch me.

Never mind.

I would like to file
a complaint, please.

Hey, it's Lauren.

I have a huge favor to ask you.

Hi.

Oh, sweet baby angel,
you're here!

I'm so sorry, it's way
past her bedtime.

And mine.

Don't worry, I can put her down.

Come on.

Yes okay, thank you. Bye.

Okay.

The security company is going
to arrive tomorrow.

They're gonna install
a whole new system

and change out all of the locks.

You're going to love them.

All my neighbors swear by them.

Did Phoebe go to sleep okay?

Of course, just like the
sweet baby angel she is.

When I think about what
could have happened to her.

Oh... I know.

I know.

It's okay, you're safe now.

It's just hitting me
all at once.

You've had a
terrible time of it.

Between this and
that student at school

and your friend getting sick,
how is she?

She's, she's doing better but...

How's David?

Fine, I think.

I actually haven't spoken
to him lately.

Oh, I just thought he might have
been out of town or something.

No. Why?

Well, I was surprised you
called me instead of him.

I'm happy you did, of course,
just surprised.

I thought about it,
but then I thought...

Actually, I don't know
even what to think anymore...

Lauren, are you having doubts
about David?

If you are, there's lots of
other lawyers in the world.

I even know a few.

I'd be happy to
help you find a new one.

You know, I actually
think I'm too tired

to make any major
decisions right now.

I'm gonna go to bed, Nadia.

Thank you again for everything.

Of course, my pleasure.

Sleep well.

Okay, that should be good.

You have one new voice message.

Hi, it's David, again.

I have a couple friends
on the police force

and they mentioned there
was a break-in at your house.

Lauren, I'm really worried
about you and Phoebe.

Please call me back.
Maybe we can have...

You're disgusting!

Mrs. Marrin, I know there
have been rumors flying around

about Conner, but they are
completely unfounded and untrue.

Conner and I have never...

Mrs. Marrin, you can't do this.

Okay, okay!

I'm okay!

I can't believe she
just tried to attack me.

Are you kidding?

If you were any kind of mother,
you'd believe it.

You'd know that you'd do the
exact same thing in her shoes.

I would never do
something like that,

not without any proof.

Neither did she.

Principal Harris would like
to see you in his office,

first thing!

You lied to me, Lauren.

You told me you'd never seen
Conner outside the school.

It wasn't a lie,
that was a few days ago.

So you claim.

It's not even
what it looks like.

He literally ran into me
on the street.

Again, so you claim.

I have a witness, she was there.

She saw him harassing me
and she helped chase him off.

Well, you're going to need her.

Especially since your
secret sessions with Conner

have come to light.

Secret sessions?
What are you talking about?

I called Maya Thompson in
to ask her about the thumb drive

she found and she mentioned
she discovered you and Conner

after school together one day.

Alone.

Yes, I was helping him
with his senior project,

but by no means was there
anything secret about it.

Is there a reason you
singled out Conner

for such personal attention?

He's not in any of
your regular classes.

Because he asked for help.

Mr. Lee doesn't know the editing
software as well as I do.

Did you inform his parents

you were providing
extracurricular assistance?

No, nor is it
school policy to do so.

We were in the computer lab
with the door open.

Anybody could have passed by
and saw us in there.

Just as Maya did.

And yet you never
mentioned these secret...

These one-on-one sessions in
any of our previous meetings.

I didn't think to.

I mean, I've had
a lot on my mind.

Obviously now I wish I had.

So do I.

Lauren, the Marrins have filed
a formal complaint against you

with the school district
and the Idaho state education.

That's insane!

Conner is the one stalking me.

I'm almost sure he broke into my
house and he planted a camera,

a video camera, in my bedroom.

Well, the police
aren't almost sure.

Conner told them he was with
friends all afternoon yesterday,

and his parents back him up.

Of course they do!

And the police report
says there were no signs

of a break in to your home,
but they did find

a Grant high T-shirt
which I quote here,

reeked of teenage Cologne.

So which is it?

Conner lied about where he was

and I seduced a
teenager in my house

while I had a
three-year-old there,

and then just called
the police for a laugh?

I'm not gonna...

Or, he's telling the truth,

and I didn't imagine
the whole thing.

The camera, the t-shirt?

You can't have it both ways!

I don't have to have it any way.

The school district
is suspending you.

Suspending me?

I'm suspended?

I'm not going to pretend I
understand what's going on here.

But if I were you, I hope you
have a really good lawyer.

I am in the process of finding
one for Phoebe's adoption.

This is not about the adoption.

What then?

It's a criminal investigation.

This could cost you everything,
not just your job, or Phoebe.

Lauren, this could
cost you your freedom.

Are you Lauren beeches?

What?

Is it true you had an affair
with an undisclosed minor?

Was that minor a student here?

Uh... no!

No comment.

What do you say to allegations

you tried to frame
your underage lover?

How many of your students
have you slept with?

Watch me!

Lauren?

David!

How did you find me?

I saw the news.

I knew you couldn't be at school

and you wouldn't be able
to go home yet.

You said this was
your favorite park, so...

Aren't you a super detective?

Phoebe, it's time to go!

I'm coming.

Look, I don't know why
you're not returning my calls.

But if you don't listen to me,

you're gonna
lose Phoebe for good.

You can't have her!

I love her! She's mine!

And I know it's crazy
because I only just met her,

but you can't have her.

Even if you are her
biological father.

Even if you're
gonna try and kill me!

What?

Lauren, Phoebe
is not my daughter.

Chloe and I were just
good friends and partners.

You know how devoted
to Brad she was.

I know.

But she was trying for so long

and then she met you
and then suddenly she's...

Even if she was my daughter,

I would just get a blood test
if I wanted custody.

I wouldn't play whatever
mind games you think this is

and I certainly
wouldn't kill anybody!

Right, of course.
That makes sense.

It's just you've spent
so much time with her.

And someone was saying that...

Who?

Who was saying whatever's
got you so confused?

It doesn't matter, I’m
not trying to pass the blame.

It's just, I'm not thinking
and I'm sorry.

I think it does matter.

Was it Nadia?

Super detective powers again?

No Lauren, Nadia is the one

who can make you
lose Phoebe for good.

She filed a challenge to
your guardianship this morning.

What?

No, she would never!

No...

Lauren, I don't think
that's a good idea.

Hello?

Nadia, it's Lauren.

Lauren, how are you?

And Phoebe, how is she?

We're fine.

Nadia, is there something
you want to tell me?

Lauren, what are you...

The guardian challenge.
Did you file one against me?

How did you find out
about that so fast?

David.

I thought you weren't
speaking to him anymore.

Is this why you were making so
many insinuations about David?

So that when you filed the
custody challenge against me

that I would be left
without a lawyer?

I didn't have a choice.

I couldn't let
that sweet baby angel

be raised by a
sex-crazed monster

who preys on the
children left in her care!

That never happened
and you know it!

Conner is the one who's crazy.

You were there at the school,

you saw him almost
attack me on the street.

I shouldn't even
be speaking to you.

You're disgusting.

I can't imagine
what Chloe was thinking.

Good bye, Lauren.

All right!

Yay!

I don't know what to do, David.

I can't lose her, I just can't.

We're going to fight this.

We're gonna win.

Wonderful.

Thank you, Sasha.

We'll see you tomorrow.

You just got yourself the
best criminal defense lawyer

in all of twin valley.

To go with the best family
lawyer in the state of Idaho?

Quite the collection of lawyers
I'm amassing these days.

How many favors
did that cost you?

Just two. Dozen.

But all well spent.

You can tell your side
of the story tomorrow.

Did you disable your
social media accounts?

Yes, and my school email
is a generic away message.

Great, you don't
want to be distracted

with whatever
those Internet trolls

want to throw at you.

Is there any news
on the rebuttal

of the custody challenge?

There's nothing that they
could do tonight, right?

Well, we got lucky. It's Friday.

And the clerk's office always
knocks off early on Fridays,

so we don't have to worry
about anything until Monday.

You've been amazing.

You know, I used to think I
wanted to raise Phoebe alone,

but it really does
take a village.

I'm happy to help.

Is there anything else?

Because I actually need to meet
the security company at five.

I'm putting in whole new locks
and a security system.

Do you want me to take
Phoebe while you do that?

That would be amazing.

You are amazing!

Thank you, I will be right back.

Bye.

Hello?

Conner?

Conner!

Conner, you've got to wake up!

Conner!

Conner!

I've gotta get you out of here.

Goodness!
Conner, are you okay?

Ms. Beeches? What's going on?

Conner, I don't know
what is going on for you

right now, I don't.

But your family
and your friends,

they would be devastated
if you killed yourself.

Killed myself?

No, I wasn't trying to...

You just locked yourself in
my garage with a running car.

I didn't do that!

Well then how?

I got your message
saying to come over.

Saying we could
finally be together

now that you weren't
working at the school anymore.

Conner, I would never
say anything like that.

Yes, you did!

I came over and the door was
unlocked just like you said.

I called your name and...
That's all I remember.

Where are you getting
these messages from?

They're not from
your school email.

No, from the mystmsg app.

The same way I got
all your other ones.

I've never even heard of
that app before in my life.

Conner, I don't know
who's talking to you,

but it wasn't me.

But all those things I told you.

That's what you meant
the other day on the street.

I really thought it was you.

Whoever it was,
they told me that...

You need to show these
messages to the police.

But I can't,
mystmsg deletes them

right after they've been read.

Okay, well then you need
to tell the truth.

You need to come clean
and no games, no sarcasm,

just tell everyone the truth.

Okay, I'll tell everybody.

I'll go right now.

First, we need to make sure
that you're not seriously hurt.

Oh he's going to be hurt,
all right.

He's gonna be dead.

Murder-suicide lovers pact.

- Sweet, huh?
- Nadia!

Get in the garage!

Go!

Nadia, I don't understand.

I thought we were friends.

Friends?

You stole my sweet baby angel
from me.

Do you know how long
I tried to have one?

Do you?

The treatments and
the disappointment,

the heartache?

Nadia, I am so sorry
and I can't even imagine

how awful that was for you.

But what does this
have to do with Phoebe?

My last treatment failed.

I was out of hope
and I was out of money.

Then I remembered Brad's will.

It gave me Phoebe
if him and Chloe died.

So Chloe had to die.

That was you?

But she changed her will.

Two random murders
would have seemed suspicious,

so yours had to seem
like an accident.

So you've been following me
around in that car?

I had to check on my
sweet baby angel, didn't I?

How could you?

Finally, I got lucky.

I overheard this gullible idiot
confessing his love for you.

Hey, handsome.

Sorry I had to pretend
to ignore you at school,

but I feel the same way
about you.

I wish we could
just run away together,

just the two of us.

It was you on that app?

- What is wrong with you?
- What is wrong with me?

I was trying to
not have to kill you.

There's no way a judge
would let a sweet baby angel

go to some teacher who
slept with one of her students,

even one as dumb as this guy.

Why would you make me believe
that David wanted Phoebe?

David is one of the
best lawyers in the state.

I couldn't risk you having him
on your side in court.

Enough of this!

Get into the garage, go!

Ah!

Get the knife!

That was a beautiful ceremony.

Yeah, it really was.

I'm sorry I got so choked up.

I could barely answer any
of the judge's questions.

Oh, I'm sure she's used to it.

The signing of the
final adoption decree

is always emotional.

And it's one of my
favorite parts of my job.

I still don't understand
how it happened so quickly.

Let's just say I had
a few dozen favors

I didn't need to use.

You didn't have
to do that for me.

I could have waited.

I can't think of anything
better to use them on.

Have you heard from the Marrins?

Yes, Mrs. Marrin called
and apologized again.

She said Conner is doing well
at his new school

and she thought it was best
if he had a clean slate.

I'm wondering if maybe
I should do the same.

You're thinking
about quitting teaching?

No, never; I'm just not so sure
that I should go back to Grant.

You know, some rumors never die

and I don't want to go
to work everyday

and see doubt in people's eyes,

especially for something
that was so terrible.

I wouldn't worry about it.

Why?

You shouldn't have.

Baby!

Thank you!

Thank you everyone,
this is just...

I don't even know what to say!

What should we say, Phoebe?

Mommy.

Mommy!
