NELL: I started drinking coffee

because I thought it would make me an instant grownup.

And for a while, that's all I wanted to be.

I just assumed that since adults are older,

their lives must be totally together.

But now when I look at my dad and Aunt Maddie and Stevie,

they seem just as messed up as me and my friends.

I don't know if it's because they have more secrets

or more things they wanna run away from.

You're up early.

Lifeguard training.

How's it going?

Fine.

You going to the movie night with Jeremy?

That's the plan.

He's coming to pick you up, right?

Well, it's not like I can drive myself.

Francesca's coming.

Why don't we go together.

Why don't we not.

STEVIE: Cute. Yeah, it's pretty.

Hey, babe.

Chad, Clare.

Clare, Chad. [CHUCKLES]

[CHUCKLES] Hey.

Hey, back at ya.

Sit tight, okay?

Take your time.

You're gonna have to call from now on.

Since when?

Um...

since...now.

Okay, who are you,

and what have you done with Stevie?

No, listen, she's right in there.

And it's just not gonna happen.

So you gotta go.

You're very bossy this morning.

[LAUGHS] I'm sorry.

I'm trying to be responsible,

and it's not coming easily.

So does this mean I can't stay?

This means you can't stay.

Bye-bye.

[BOTH LAUGH]

[DOOR CLOSES, OPENS]

Oh. I-- I thought you'd be at work already.

I should have called.

No, no. That-- That's all right.

I'm-- I just, uh-- I need some clothes.

It's still your house.

You don't have to make an appointment.

Well, I-- I didn't wanna get in the way.

You okay?

[CLEARS THROAT]

I'm fine.

It's just a stomach bug. It'll pass.

Well, don't leave it too long.

These things can-- They can get out of hand.

How are you?

What do you think?

I-- Uh, I'll just-- I'll get those clothes.

Okay. Well, if she-- When she calls,

would you have her call me immediately?

Thank you.

[BEEPS]

No luck?

Not yet.

Nell hasn't seen her since yesterday afternoon,

and I keep getting getting the machine at Cooper's.

[SIGHS]

Yeah, I'm striking out too.

Um, look, I'm gonna go for a drive,

see if I can find her car.

I'm coming with you.

No, you should stay here, just in case she comes home.

[BREATHES DEEPLY]

Why did she take off?

What were you two arguing about?

[CONTINUES DIALING]

[PHONE RINGING]

[PHONE RINGING]

[RINGING CONTINUES]

What?

You're so beautiful.

[CHUCKLES]

My hair's all crazy.

And my breath.

It's perfect.

[CHUCKLES]

Your breath is perfect.

Oh.

I've never...

This is the first boy sleepover I've ever had.

So last night...

it was okay for you?

It was great.

Thanks to you.

No, your first time, you shouldn't be so upset.

I don't want you to regret it.

Not that you were easy to say no to.

[CHUCKLES]

Oh, I'm crazy about you, Skye.

So I'm not just a... summer fling?

No way.

I want us to stay together when I go back to school.

It's not far.

And we can get together on the weekends...

if you want.

I want.

Last night, I--

I don't know what I would have done

if you hadn't been here.

This whole thing with my mom...

[SIGHS]

My head hurts just thinking about it.

Then don't.

Don't think about it.

I was so relieved when you called.

You were a total droid the other day and--

Get in.

They're pressing charges against me.

Uh, but my attorney says

that as long as you go on record

that our relationship was consensual,

they don't have a case.

Consensual?

That means that you weren't forced--

I know what that means.

I love you. I wanna be with you.

They can't nail me for statutory

if you make it clear it was consensual.

And that you were 17 at the time.

I was 16.

I know, but the law says you have to be 17.

So...

So if I tell them that I was 17

and that I wanted it,

then you won't go to jail?

Yeah.

Okay.

[SIGHS] Good.

I'm thinking about quitting.

Mm-hm.

I even bought some of that gum.

That's good.

Um...

So when do I need to do this thing?

There's a slot open at noon.

That's fast.

I'd like to put this behind us as soon as possible.

Well, I'll call my attorney.

Yeah. Um, I should get going, anyway, so...

You'll be there at noon?

Yeah, I'll be there.

[ENGINE STARTS]

Yeah, that'd be great. Thanks.

Hey. You got a second?

Yeah. I thought you left.

[SIGHS] Yeah, I'm on my way.

Listen, I talked to one of the people

that Emma gave money to.

They didn't know who she was.

They only knew that the money came from the Church.

So she was helping the poor.

I guess.

Mystery solved.

Reverend Gallagher told me

he didn't know any of the names on the list of checks.

It's a big parish.

He can't be expected to know everyone.

Yeah. Well...

doesn't track for me.

From what you said,

Emma did all kinds of outreach programs.

It only stands to reason that

she knew people that weren't directly linked to the Church.

Why would she lie about charity?

We were always open about money.

She certainly had no problem talking about it

when she wanted to redesign the kitchen.

Maybe she was uncomfortable talking to you about that stuff.

But I would have been thrilled

that she was involved with something like this.

Well, it's only truly charity when you're doing it

to help people and not to score points, right?

Right.

Sorry I bothered you with all this.

I'm glad you did.

And I'll see you at the movie thing.

And after that, you can bother me all you want.

You bet.

[CHUCKLES]

LAWYER: Ms. Macabe, you stated that your relationship

with Officer Alba was consensual.

Is that correct?

Yes, it was definitely consensual.

And how old were you

at the time the relationship began?

LAWYER: Ms. Macabe? Yes?

I asked how old you were

at the time the relationship began.

I was...

[CLEARS THROAT] Seventeen. I was 17.

Thank you, Ms. Macabe. I think that's all we need.

You proud of yourself?

I have nothing to say to you.

He's a criminal, Clare.

And because of you, he's gonna get off scot-free.

Yeah, like you're one to talk.

No, I would've testified against him myself.

But you're 18 now, so it's your word against mine.

Well, you're definitely "Mother of the Year."

Do you think you're the first girl he's done this to?

Or the last?

You're just jealous 'cause I have someone who wants me.

Okay, okay. That's enough.

Oh, yeah, a few nights on your couch

and suddenly you're an expert on my daughter.

She's had a very difficult day, and this isn't helping.

I'm fine.

You know what, Clare?

Getting dressed up all fancy may fool some idiot attorney,

but you're still the same old girl you always were.

[CAR DOOR CLOSES]

[♪♪♪]

[CAR DOOR CLOSES]

Hi.

Hey.

Pretty view.

Yeah. I like it.

Whatever the weather conditions, it's always great.

You always were a sort of

go-with-the-flow type, weren't you?

Yeah. Something like that.

I'm starting to think that control is highly overrated.

And who really has any, anyway?

Hm.

She had the account for three years.

And it's not the money that I care about.

It's the not knowing.

And she clearly didn't want me to know.

W-why would she do that?

As you've pointed out,

I'm not the best person to go to for marriage advice.

But those relationships you hear about

where people tell each other everything,

I've never had one.

And it's not that it's all secrets and lies.

It's just that sometimes that's more loving

than the truth.

Well, I thought we were happy.

Well, that's what I'm saying. Maybe you were.

About a year before she died, I noticed a change.

I had thought it was for the best.

She had energy. She was laughing.

But looking back on it, she was distant.

And I clearly had no idea what the hell was going on with her.

I think you're angry with her

for leaving you and Nell.

And it's not that the stuff with the money isn't mysterious.

It is.

It's just that that's not what this is really about.

You're right. I am angry.

Let it go.

Just focus on the present. You and Nell.

[♪♪♪]

Yeah. Here. Yeah, okay.

How long you been working on it?

Not long.

Hi.

Hi.

Hey.

I was looking for Clare. Do you know where she is?

I, uh-- I dropped her off at the cove earlier.

Oh.

Stevie was just showing me some of her work.

It's pretty rad, huh?

Indeed, it is very rad.

[CHUCKLES]

Uh, I could tell Clare to give you a call.

Okay.

So we're all talking again, or...

[CHUCKLES] Yes.

We can all talk now.

Thank you.

Welcome.

So you gonna tell me about you and Stevie?

We're good friends.

That's a massive improvement,

considering how you've been lately.

Nell, I'm dating Francesca.

So that's you're story, and you're sticking to it?

What's your plan today?

You mean other than trying

to get Skye and Clare back together?

I don't know, maybe I'll swim to Africa.

Things are that bad? Mm-hm.

Well, some things you just can't change.

Skye and I are gonna go shopping today.

Try to make her feel better.

Can I have my license back?

Please?

Please?

Oh, my gosh.

I hate that picture. Look at my braces.

[LAUGHS]

I think it's pretty cute.

Honey, do you remember anything different

about your mother before she died?

Not really.

Other than the fact that she became

Miss Joe-Community-Service.

Why?

Just wondering.

Thanks.

[SMOOCHES] I promise that I won't go after dark.

Bye.

You're under arrest for excessive hotness.

Is there something you need?

Just you.

And thanks to you, the D.A. doesn't have a case.

It's over. We're home free.

There is no "we."

I know it's been a rough couple days, babe.

Yeah, it has. For me.

I get that.

No, I don't think you do.

When my mom kicked me out,

I didn't care because I figured, you know, we loved each other,

and we could finally be together.

[SIGHS] Clare...

No, you've done enough talking, okay?

Okay. It's my turn now.

And then you called and said you wanted to see me.

And I was dumb enough to think

that you were gonna apologize

and, you know, say you love me too

and that I could stay with you.

But the only reason you wanted to see me

was because of that stupid hearing.

Th-the lawyer. He--

That has nothing to do with this.

It's you, Marty.

You broke my heart.

And then you just shredded it into a thousand pieces.

I'm so sorry.

You know the worst part?

I deserve so much better.

[♪♪♪]

[PHONE RINGING]

Hello?

[BEEPS]

Hello?

[DIAL TONE]

[BEEPS]

[GASPS]

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

Jack Kilvert's office.

Hi, Diane. It's Maddie Ross.

I need to speak with my brother.

I'm sorry. He's unavailable. May I--

He just called me. Please put me through.

DIANE: He's not here, Mrs. Ross.

He called me. He wants to talk to me.

I need you to find him.

I'm sorry.

I really don't know where he is at the moment.

Don't you understand how important this is?

He just called me. I need to talk to him right now.

I'm sorry, I-- So find him, damn it!

Mrs. Ross, you need to calm down.

Don't tell me to calm down!

You have no idea what I'm going through!

Ugh!

Ugh!

I can't believe you had to go to the courthouse.

Yeah, it was a real party.

Yeah.

I wish I could have been there when you told him

to take his smug little apology and shove it.

Bam! Right to the kisser.

Marsh, no one's said "kisser" in like a hundred years.

I'm gonna bring it back. Start a trend.

[LAUGHS] So seriously, after all that,

he still thought you would take him back?

What a chump.

Well, I think he really felt bad.

Well, he should.

I-- You know, I really loved him.

And I still do.

Tell me that's some weird Pavlovian response

and you don't really mean it.

You can't erase two years in a couple of days.

It just doesn't work that way.

They have lasers that can remove tattoos.

Trust me, you can lose Marty Alba.

Yeah. She's pretty hot.

NELL: For a vampire.

Whoa. Didn't know you were such a big fan.

It's not like I'm saying she's Satan, but...

What, maybe his first cousin?

[LAUGHS] Yeah.

[SIGHS]

GUY: It's her for sure. I'm sure of it.

GUY 2: Ooh, I can't wait to see the sequel.

GIRL [LAUGHING]: Oh, Dan!

What's their problem?

They probably just heard about my dad.

Hard to miss when it's on the front page.

They're just a bunch of jerks.

Ignore 'em.

Done.

It's great wine.

Ralph gave it to me.

Oh. He's quite the multitasker.

He says he has a vineyard in Malibu.

Isn't it funny how a person who drinks a lot of wine

is considered sophisticated,

but if you drink the same amount of tequila,

they call you a lush? [LAUGHS]

Have you thought any more about moving to L.A.?

No. Not really.

You liar.

What?

You don't get an offer like that

from a guy like Ralph and not obsess over it.

At least not the Jack Kilvert I know.

Maybe I'm trying to be healthier.

Healthier is running an extra mile or two,

not sticking your ass in sand.

[LAUGHING]

So I had to tell him. I had to.

Hi, Marsh. Ms. Macabe.

How's it going?

Oh, I've had better weeks.

She's not here.

Oh.

Oh, but I wouldn't worry about it.

I heard they're on the outs.

Really?

That's the best news I've heard in a long time.

Tell me about it.

Oh, are you hungry?

Always.

Something wrong? No.

I just don't feel like seeing a movie tonight.

Take it easy.

Billy, I'm gonna get going home.

Okay. Um, I'm gonna come too.

No. It's okay. You can stay.

No. I want to. Billy.

Uh, look, I'll see you later. Maybe.

[SIGHS]

Don't worry, I'm leaving.

Wait.

You don't have to go.

I heard you're not seeing him anymore.

Oh. And that suddenly makes me not scum?

Would you relax, Clare?

I'm sorry, Billy.

Have you forgotten that she kicked me out?

No, I made a mistake. I overreacted.

Tell someone who cares.

She's apologizing to you. Would you give her a break?

It's a little late for that.

You're my mother. You're supposed to

be there for me when I'm in trouble,

not kick me when I'm down.

I know. I said I'm sorry.

Are you, really?

Sorry? Or just embarrassed that your little plan

to ruin Marty's life didn't work out?

No. I love you, Clare.

I just didn't wanna see you get hurt.

Oh.

So instead you made sure it would happen.

Nice.

I'm out of here. Clare.

She needs some time to cool off.

EARP: Me and Morg are goin' out to see Pa,

tell him what happened.

I might come East again, get some cattle,

maybe stop by here again.

Stop by the schoolhouse?

Yes, ma'am, I sure will.

Hm.

[PROJECTOR CLICKING]

CLEMENTINE: Goodbye.

Ma'am, I sure like that name:

Clementine.

[♪♪♪]

[ALL CLAPPING]

MAN: That was a good movie.

It was great to see you. See you, guys.

STEVIE: Oh. So sweet. CHAD: Sweet couple. Yeah.

Hi!

Hey. Chad, Jack.

Hi.

And...

Um...

Francesca. Francesca.

I'm terrible with names.

Hi. Chad.

So cool movie, huh?

Yeah. Classic.

Can't go wrong with the old ones.

You know, I don't think any of this has changed.

I think they're still using the same projector.

[LAUGHS]

Do you remember Ted Donnelly?

[LAUGHING] And he--

Oh, my God.

--sang the whole of "Star-Spangled Banner" naked.

Oh, my God.

[LAUGHING] And it took six people to haul him away.

Oh, God. It was hilarious.

[LAUGHING]

Sorry.

Oh.

Well, I guess you had to be there.

I guess.

I think Ralph's wine has hit me kind of hard.

Do you mind if we go?

Oh, no. Sure.

It's good seeing you.

Bye.

You guys have a good one.

[CADENCE GRACE'S "A GIRL'S LIFE" PLAYING]

How does it feel to be famous?

What?

Don't be shy.

You know you love the attention.

Hey, everybody, the Paris Hilton of Hubbard's Point is here.

[CROWD CHEERING AND WHISTLING]

What's your problem?

Come on, Skye. Quit the modest act.

You're a total sensation.

Your video has gotten like 5000 hits.

My video?

What are you talking about?

Maybe your boyfriend with the rock star abs

should fill you in.

What's going on?

Um, I don't know.

They-- They must have had a second camera--

What are you talking about, a second camera?

Look, I don't know.

I didn't mean for this to happen. I--

[ALL LAUGHING, WHISTLING]

[GASPS]

Look, Skye, I never--

Shut up. Just...shut up.

[PEOPLE LAUGH]

How's your head?

Can I get you an aspirin?

You could apologize.

For what?

If you wanted to go to the movie with Stevie,

you should have asked her.

I don't know what you're talking about.

[SCOFFS] Come on, Jack.

You stared at her the whole night.

I could have been in Cuba for all you knew or cared.

I did?

Look, don't even try to tell me

you don't have feelings for her,

because I think the only thing possibly worse

than being humiliated by you tonight

is to be patronized.

Um, I'm sorry.

Look, my head has been somewhere else,

and I am trying to rationalize it,

but the truth of the matter

is that my wife had been living

what amounts to be a double life.

And the Stevie thing is complicated.

Well, the way I felt tonight...

A completely new experience.

You know, it's not really something I wanna repeat.

Where are you going?

Come on.

If you didn't want me to leave, you'd be barring the door.

I'm not gonna try to change your mind.

That's not how I'm wired.

And you're a terrific woman, Francesca.

Yes, I am.

All the more reason

not to try to sell myself to you like a used car.

Take care of yourself, Jack.

[♪♪♪]

Just so you know,

your little sting operation

has completely destroyed my family.

My daughter's missing, my marriage is in a shambles,

and my husband's looking at five years in prison.

Whatever they paid you, I hope it was worth it.

I don't know where my daughter is, either.

I'm sorry. I wish I could take it all back.

Sweetheart. We were so worried.

[SOBBING]

[SIGHS]

It's okay.

[CRYING] No.

Your mother didn't mean what she said.

It's-- She's just--

It's Michael's birthday. It's really hard for--

That's not what this is about.

Oh! I'm so stupid.

What are you talking about?

I stayed at Cooper's, and...he--

Did he hurt you? No.

No, but-- But there was a camera and--

And now the Internet--

Look, take your time, sweetie.

Oh, he kept saying that it was his roommate's, but--

But he keeps talking about there being two cameras,

like that makes it okay.

Oh! If I would have just come home,

this never would have happened.

I'm so sorry.

Hey, it's not your fault.

[CRYING]

Don't worry.

They won't get away with this.

After my ex-husband left me, I--

I couldn't make ends meet.

So the first person who offered me money

to push a proposal through the town council,

I jumped on it.

And then last year, the D.A. caught me, and I got arrested.

But I couldn't go to jail. I-I just couldn't do it.

So we made a deal.

The next person who tried to buy me off,

I'd wear a wire.

And in came Sam.

And then Marty started hanging around the restaurant.

I thought it was for the free food

and to keep tabs on me.

Well, it turns out he liked my daughter

a lot more than the food.

Nice.

Yeah, she's 18 years old.

She thinks she's in love.

I was so scared and angry that I threw her out.

But the minute she was gone, I wanted her back.

You know, we've always been so close,

but this thing with Marty, I--

I hear myself talking,

and I-- I see this angry, out-of-control stranger.

And if that's who I've become,

then I don't blame her for not wanting to be with me.

You can fix this.

No. Yes, you can.

It won't be easy, but you can do it.

She hates me.

No, she doesn't.

This is just the mother-daughter stuff.

Right?

You'll be okay.

[INHALES]

I'm a successful broker.

I have a wife, three kids.

I used to be a champion chess player.

I also used to drink a bottle of Grey Goose a day.

It hasn't been easy, and...

I've had a lot of near-misses.

But I can proudly say

I just celebrated my 14th month of sobriety.

[ALL APPLAUD]

Congratulations.

MAN: Congratulations. Well done.

Uh, we always invite newcomers to participate if they like.

Oh, I don't know. I--

It's up to you. Would you care to share with us?

[CLEARS THROAT]

Your stories are all so familiar.

I-- I-- I didn't realize

how comforting that was going to be.

I started drinking because I was shy.

Liquid courage, right?

And then as I got older and life got more complicated...

I guess I was drinking to avoid the truth.

At this point, I've spent so many years lying and hiding...

it's my only form of communication.

My name is Maddie...

and I'm an alcoholic.

Welcome.

CROWD: Welcome, Maddie.
