Breakfast in five, honey bear.

Okay, daddy.

I'm gonna steal one of these.

Want some more eggs?

No, thanks.

Mrs. Ellis showed us
this year's citizenship award.

It's a medal.
It's really big.

- 'Like the Olympics.'
- Really?

Well, not that big.

It's pretty big.

I'm gonna win it.

It wouldn't surprise me a bit...
if you did.

'It's given to the person
who exemplifies'

'St. Alden's values.'

Faith, honesty,
grace and compassion.

I just don't want you
to be disappointed

if you don't win it.

When are you having
another date?

Why? Does it bother you
when I date?

No. Why would it bother me?

- 'Hey.'
- 'Hey, Aunt Angela.'

Hey.

Hey, honey bear.
I found our gal.

Em and I were just talking
about me dating.

Not a date, I found you a nanny.

Wasn't that the assignment?

Uh.. I mean, new baby sitter.

I know you don't need
a new nanny.

I don't need
a new baby sitter either.

It's stupid.

She's still upset about
Ms. Livia.

You should baby sit me,
Aunt Angela.

It would be an honor, my queen.

But I think my patients
might object.

Don't worry, Em, I'm gonna
find you someone you like.

Oh, she also says
she's gonna win

another award this semester.

Hmm. She's got drive.

You should be thrilled.

Right, Emma?

Emma.

There's a dead cat
in the fountain.

[intense music]

Don't be sad.

Probably happened very fast

I don't think it felt a thing.

[bell ringing]

[indistinct chatter]

[wasp buzzing]

[kids whimpering]

(Mrs. Ellis)
'Calm down, everyone.'

'I guarantee you
it's more afraid of you'

'than you are of it.'

'Emma Grossman!'

[wasp buzzing]

- Thank you, Emma.
- You're welcome, Mrs. Ellis.

[indistinct chatter]

H-h-how did you do that?

We have a nest in our backyard.

My dad says wasps only attack

when they feel threatened.

It's nature, Milo.

[train chugging]

(David)
'Hope you're not allergic
to dust.'

This probably isn't the best
place in the house

to have a meeting, but..

...I'm on a dead line.

No worries.

Do you make everything here?

No, hardly anything anymore.

I have two factories goin',
but..

...this is where it all began.

Cool.

So, tell me about you.

Your resume says you were
a professional snowboarder.

Yep, right up until
I blew out my ACL.

- Hate to hear that.
- It's for the best.

I still hit it hard, I just try
to avoid the dangerous stuff.

Sure, so you've been a nanny
for five years?

- That's right.
- Seem to like it?

I love kids, there's no BS,
they're not complicated.

If they're sad, they cry,
if they're happy, they laugh.

It's refreshing.

So is there anything else
I need to know?

Your references
all seem to love you.

I make a mean grilled cheese.

You wanna know the secret
ingredients?

- Sure.
- Pickles and mustard. Boom!

Done.

Well, um..

Can you start next week?

Emma's about to begin
her spring break.

Sure, I can start whenever you--

(male #1)
'Uh, Mr. Grossman.'

'Here are the Stegall plans'

and you have a materials call

in five minutes.

Thank you,
is there anything else?

Nope.

Is there anything
you wanna ask me?

What's your daughter like?

Emma is...very focused.

She's a normal little girl
but she can be very focused.

I don't know how else to say it.

She's smart, straight A's.

Never gets into trouble.

Loves hot chocolate.

- My kinda girl.
- Mine too.

And your wife,
should I meet with her too?

She died just after
Emma was born.

I'm so sorry.

Thanks.

So it's, uh,
it's just the two of us.

And, um...we manage.

Well..

...I guess I will see you..

...next week.

Looking forward to it.

Your watch is sick.

Right?
I got it for my birthday.

(kid #1)
I got a watch
for my birthday too..

[dramatic music]

- Careful there.
- 'You're it.'

- 'Check this out.'
- 'Whoa, watch out.'

[groaning]

Katie, are you alright?

You okay?

I'm so sorry,
I didn't mean to hurt you.

Here, let me help you up.

I'm so sorry.

You're still it, let's go.

[dramatic music]

[bees buzzing]

Brought you your favorite.

Thanks, daddy.

- You wanna read together?
- You don't have to, daddy.

I know how busy you are.

What would you give me
for a basket of hugs?

A basket of kisses.

[instrumental music]

A basket of kisses.

A basket of kisses.
A basket of kisses.

Basket of kisses.
Basket of kisses.

You look like a movie star.

Don't make me late, dad.

I won't.

[foot tapping]

[instrumental music]

[indistinct singing]

[applauding]

- Nice suit, Milo.
- Thanks.

He has been
counting down the days.

Oh, tell me about it.

(Mrs. Ellis)
And now, our final award.

The St. Alden's
Citizenship Medallion.

'Every year we honor someone
of character.'

'Someone who truly embodies
the values'

'that this school
was founded on.'

This year I am proud

to award the St. Alden
Citizenship Medallion

'to Milo Curtis.'

- Mom.
- What?

Good job.

[foot tapping]

[chuckles]

Here you go, Milo.

- Good job.
- Thanks.

[applauding]

[chuckles]
Wow.

I'm sorry I missed
our parent teacher conference.

I had a big installation
in the city.

No worries, we can reschedule.

How is Emma doing? I mean...not
to put you on the spot.

Right. She's fine.

She's, um..

I have to say, I've never met
anyone quite like her

in my 20 years of teaching.

Why does it sound
like a bad thing?

No, I didn't mean that
in any fashion at all.

Emma's never had one mark
against her

and she's one of our
top students.

She can be a real leader
when she wants to be.

B-but?

Emma lives in her
own particular world.

And I'm sure it isn't
anything like the world

that you and I live in.

I mean, she has many
remarkable qualities

that are great in a child.

Her courage is...most unusual.

She's almost without any..

...physical fear.

And she really knows how to
come across when she has to.

She could be an actress I bet.

- Please. Not an actress.
- Alright.

- Mrs. Ellis.
- Oh, hi.

- Excuse me. Mm-hm.
- Sure.

I'm proud of you, honey bear.

I know you're disappointed.

That medal's mine.
I deserve it.

Milo can't even talk
in front of the class.

Come on.

Everybody has something special
to offer.

Milo's a good kid.

Yeah, well,
he's an awful public speaker.

- And he can't spell.
- Emma.

[sighs]
You're right.

Sorry.

Milo's my friend.

I'm really happy he got it.

[instrumental music]

[indistinct chatter]

[instrumental music]

[waves crashing]

(Milo)
Wow, you're right,
this place is cool.

[music continues]

We should go back now.

(Milo)
'Emma, what's wrong?'

What do you want?

I think you know.

[indistinct chatter]

One, two, three.

Oh, it's good,
I'll email it to you.

- Hey, dad, can we get going?
- Sure.

Has anyone see Milo?

- I haven't seen him.
- Emma, have you seen him?

Um, last place I saw him
was by the bonfire.

[children screaming]

Help! Help!

- Help.
- Quickly.

Mrs. Ellis, please come, look.

[intense music]

[gasping]

Oh, my God!

Just.. Milo!

Milo!

Come on, come on, baby, breathe.

Somebody do something!

Call 911.

Milo!

Come on, baby. Milo.

Come on, Milo.
Come on. Come on.

- Milo?
- 'Yes, please hurry.'

[sobbing]

(Maggie)
'Somebody help us.'

That poor kid.

He was lying there
on the rocks for hours

before they came
and took him away.

It's horrible.

How is she?

She's okay. Mm..

- I think she's in shock.
- Hmm.

I think we all are.

She's up in her room reading.

I'm sure it'll hit her later.

[sighs]
Yes, I'm sure it will.

[instrumental music]

[clock ticking]

- Emma.
- Morning, dad.

Morning, hon.

You want some cereal?

There's just enough left.

No, I'm okay, thanks.

How are you feeling?

I'm alright.

Hope it doesn't rain today.

I meant about yesterday.

'You must be pretty sad, right?'

'If you wanna talk about it,
I'm here for you.'

Okay.

Do you need someone to talk to?

I don't really think
there's anything to talk about.

[intense music]

Give her time,
kids process differently.

Don't make her
feel self-conscious.

[sighs]
You're probably right.

She's just so strong, you know.

I mean, even her teachers
are talking about it.

Just hope she can..

...take some time
and...feel.

[car honking]

Look who's here.

Great job, by the way,
she seems perfect.

Miller said she was great
with Sam.

Professional head hunter,
that's me.

Are you gonna finally
take my friend Leslie out?

Oh, my God, you are relentless.

Yes, I will call her.

Hey there.

Let's get this party started.

[instrumental music]

Washer, dryer obviously.

- Wow, this place is amazing.
- Thanks.

It was a fixer-upper
my wife and I bought

right before Emma was born.

- Is this your wife?
- 'Oh, yeah.'

'That was, um,
our Christmas card one year.'

There she is.
Emma, this is Chloe.

- Chloe, this is Emma.
- Hi, Emma.

It's very nice to meet you.

I like your necklace.

Do you wanna see my medals?

We have to finish
the tour first.

Anyway, emergency numbers here.

All the keys go in that, uh

'little place there.'

'Um, fire extinguishers
under the sink.'

'We have a couple upstairs
in the bedrooms.'

[intense music]

[dog barking]

I wanna watch a movie.

The wind was blowing
a window open.

I'll be down in a minute.

[intense music]

- Elmer!
- Nell!

I don't get it.
This is stupid.

- What's stupid?
- Shirley Temple.

(Nell on TV)
'Come on with me.'

The woman was
a United States ambassador.

Can't imagine
she was very stupid.

I meant the movie.

(Elmer on TV)
'Alas! That I should find you..'

- When's my dad coming home?
- Soon.

He has a meeting.

So you sad about the kid
that drowned?

I don't think it matters
if I'm sad.

He's dead anyway.

Besides, my dad said

you don't feel anything
when you drown.

You're all warm and fuzzy,
aren't you?

So what are you into?

Music? Horses?

I'm into everything.

What's the deal with your dad?
He got a girlfriend?

No. Why?

Just asking. No biggie.

Here it comes.

He had one for a while.

I didn't like her.

So he dumped her?

Yep.

You're sort of somethin' else,
aren't you?

And you're sort of a thief.

Excuse me.

And you're smart.

I saw you take the pills
from my dad's bedroom.

But not enough
for my dad to notice.

Don't worry...I won't tell.

I think I'm gonna stay up
past my bedtime tonight.

Now go and get me
some ice cream.

You little bitch.

Bring me a couple of cookies
while you're at it.

[indistinct singing]

It's okay. It's okay.

'Try not to cry.'

- I'm so sorry.
- Thank you.

[sighs]
Hey.

Thanks for coming.

Hi, Emma.

Well, don't ask me how I am.
I don't wanna lie to you.

It was a beautiful service.

He had a good last day.

A really good last day,
I mean

he has never won
anything before

'and he was so
proud of that medal.'

I just wish I knew where it was.

You don't have the medal?

Well, I think maybe
it sunk to the bottom?

(David)
Is there anything
I can do for you?

If you have any pictures
of that day, I'd like 'em.

Just pictures of him
playing, happy..

It really does help.

[sniffling]

[instrumental music]

[instrumental music]

Dad.

What are you doing in my room?

- Just picking up a little.
- It is picked up.

It's always picked up.

Anything else?

No.

[instrumental music]

Mrs. Ellis.

- Hey.
- Nice to meet you.

(Mrs. Ellis)
'Believe me, nothing like this
has ever happened'

in our 95-year history.

'And we're using every resource
we have to make sure'

'that it never happens again.'

'But there is a legal issue
that we have to contend with.'

Sure.

'We're reaching out
to all the parents'

to gather
whatever information we can.

Well.. Okay,
I-I don't really understand.

So this an insurance thing or..

Well, that's one component, yes.

Well, what did happen?

No one's given anybody
an update.

'How did Milo
fall off that cliff?'

That's what we're gonna
find out.

Are the police involved?

Uh, we're not at liberty
to share that.

Obviously, if and when
the authorities are involved

we may share that information
with the families.

Some families.

Excuse me, but..

...is there something
you're not telling me?

Please don't misunderstand.

We're just trying
to get to the facts.

But if Emma heard or
saw something, we need to know.

That boy couldn't swim
and he was afraid of water.

Why was he out on the rocks?

You little shit.

Any information
would be helpful, as it seems

'Emma was the last
to see the boy.'

I'm sorry?

At least three people
saw her near the rocks.

Now we're not saying
Emma did anything wrong--

(David)
'Well, I should hope not.'

Listen, I'd be very careful
of what you insinuate.

[Emma screaming]

(David)
Emma. Emma!

Emma!

What happened? Are you okay?

We'll show ourselves out.

Yeah, sure.

Let me see this arm.

Let me see this.

Alright,
let's get you cleaned up.

Okay?

You're lucky you didn't cut
yourself worse, honey bear.

- I'm sorry, daddy.
- It's okay.

Accidents happen.

Do you know
why Mrs. Ellis was here?

It was about Milo I bet.

Is there anything you wanna
tell me about that day?

Anything at all?

Nope.

You're sure?

You weren't ever out
on that rock face, were you?

No.

Mrs. Ellis says you were.

She's lying.

Honey, why would Mrs. Ellis lie?

Because she hates me.

She never liked me.

I don't know why.

Why would she say that?

I-I don't know what's going on

I'm just,
I'm just worried about you.

I'm sorry, daddy.

I don't mean to get upset.

I'm just sad about Milo.

Want me to read to you?

I'm not really in the mood.

Okay.

Daddy.

What would you give me
for a basket of kisses?

A basket of hugs.

[dramatic music]

[exhales sharply]

[sniffs]

Hi.

Sorry, I was just checking
on you and Emma, uh..

And we're out of milk.

[saw whirring]

- Hey.
- I'm, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean
to startle you last night.

I probably could've waited
to do the market list.

Yeah.

- So what's up?
- Um..

Hey, do you mind
if I, like, smoke in here?

I would never do it
around Emma

but out here,
I thought...maybe.

Do you see everything
against that wall?

It's all flammable,
so no, I don't think

this is the best place
for a smoking area.

Ah. Got it.

- So how can I help you?
- Emma's arm seems good.

I'm sorry, I should have been
paying closer attention to her.

I was with her one minute

and when I turned around

s-she was gone.

Yeah. I understand.

- Stuff happens.
- Stuff happens.

Hell, yeah, it does.

So, let me ask you..

...how are things
with you and Emma?

Everything okay?

Oh, she's great.
Such a cool kid.

It's good to hear.

She's so...fun

and smart and funny.

I never would have thought
of Emma as funny.

Oh, not in a weird way.
She's funny like..

I don't know, like different.

In a good way.

Most girls her age
are pretty lame.

Purple leggings
and princess posters everywhere

but Emma's like...a lady,
you know?

I do know.

Oh, I was looking at more
pictures of your wife.

She was pretty hot.

Yes, she was. Thank you.

[wasp buzzing]

Gotta get rid
of these wasps.

Well, I better get back to Emma.

She wants to go
on the scooter.

- Great.
- Anyway, I love my job here.

I just wanted you to know.

Thank you.
I appreciate that.

- I'm sure Emma does as well.
- Yeah.

We love each other.

Your dad thinks you have
major issues, Curly Sue.

- What do you mean?
- He knows what's up.

He was grilling me
about you.

What'd he ask?

Wouldn't you like to know.

Don't worry,
I told him how great you are.

I got you, girl.

Just don't mess with me.

[car brakes squeak]

(Emma)
Why is Mrs. Ellis at Milo's?

(Chloe)
'You must be shitting bricks.'

Gross. Why'd you
say something like that?

(Chloe)
'Cause they're closing in
on you now, babe.

Building their case.

What do you mean?

One day, the police will
get involved and you'll have

to come clean
about what you did to Milo.

- I didn't do anything to Milo.
- Sure, you didn't.

Anyway, you'll see.

You better get
your story straight

or you're gonna get busted.

[indistinct chatter]

[intense music]

Yeah, I'd be worried, too,
if I were you.

I'm not worried
about anything.

You're just being a bitch.

Look...I don't know
what you did

to that kid on the rocks,
but I know it wasn't good

and I know you're lying
to everybody.

And you stole
from my dad's room.

Well, I guess we both have
secrets to keep

for each other, don't we?

(Emma)
'My dad says it's not good'

'to keep secrets.'

If you see something,
you should tell.

Are you threatening me,
honey bear?

Do you know what they do
to kids that go to jail?

(Emma)
'Not really.'

Well, if it's something
like stealing or hurting someone

you get sent to a hospital

where kids yell and scream
and cut themselves.

'You never get out.'

But if it's something
really bad

like maybe
if someone...dies..

...you get sent
to the electric chair.

You're silly. Nobody would put
a kid in the electric chair.

(Chloe)
'Sure, they do.'

Do you know what happens
in the electric chair?

It cooks you.

Your skin crackles
and shrivels

like when we make bacon
in the morning.

I don't believe you.

A kid wouldn't even fit
in that big chair.

They have a special one for
kids. It's even painted pink.

And they put pee-pee pads
underneath it

for when you piss yourself.

God, you're disgusting.

Google it.

[dramatic music]

Emma?

Em?

Emma?

Emma, you out there?

Emma?

[music continues]

[car lock beeps]

[engine revving]

[music continues]

[wasp buzzing]

[music continues]

[wasp buzzing]

[screams]

[breathing heavily]

Whoa.

[engine revving]

[intense music]

[wasps buzzing]

Hello?

[dog barking in distance]

[intense music]

[clock ticking]

[sighs]

There she is.

How was your day?
Do anything fun?

Well, I don't know
if it was fun exactly

but I had a good day.

[intense music]

[floor creaks]

What are you doing?

Oh, nothing.

- What's in your hand?
- Nothing.

[clock ticking]

[music continues]

Oh, Emma.

Where did this come from?

Emma, how did Milo's medal
get into this house?

I, I don't know.

Where did you find it?

(Chloe)
'It was hidden under the bed.'

I found it cleaning.

Thank you, Chloe.

I need to talk to Emma alone.

Sure thing.

Emma.

How did Milo Curtis' medal
get under your bed?

I don't know
how it got there.

How should I know
how it got there?

Um..

Were you ever, at any time

out on that rock face?

Yes, daddy.
I went there once.

So Mrs. Ellis wasn't lying
when she said you were there?

Guess she wasn't lying.

Yes, daddy.

Were you with Milo?

For a minute.

And what happened?

Emma!

This is very serious
and I can't help you

'if I don't know the truth.'

Milo and I were playing
a game we made up.

It was kinda
like capture the flag

'but with his medal instead.'

I won, so, Milo gave me
his medal to wear.

So he gave you the medal
out on the rock?

No, I got it later on.

I don't know
where Milo went after that.

[sighs]

Emma, do you know Mrs. Curtis

has been looking for this?

She wanted
to bury Milo with it.

How stupid.

Milo wouldn't even know
if he was buried with it or not.

[intense music]

Daddy, what's wrong?

'Where are you going?'

Just need some air.

Hey, Ange, it's me, listen,
I need the name

of a good child psychiatrist
for Emma. It's nothing urgent.

I just think that she needs
someone to talk to.

(Angela on phone)
'Okay,
I have the perfect person.'

Oh, okay.
Good, thanks. Um..

I'll call you back.

[indistinct radio chatter]

[police sirens wailing]

[intense music]

[indistinct chatter]

(Mrs. Ellis)
Mr. and Mrs. Grossman

there's something wrong
with your daughter.

I'm sorry.

[monitor beeping]

[music continues]

I think I saw something
in the fountain.

(David)
Who did this?

[music continues]

[breathing heavily]

[clanks]

Pretty happy with yourself,
aren't ya?

- What do you mean?
- You know exactly what I mean.

Nope. I really don't.

Oh. You meant I shit-boxed
you with Milo's medal?

- You're so gross.
- 'Eat your eggs.'

I feel bad for you.

I wouldn't wanna go do this.

And I don't want to.

(Chloe)
I won't say anything.

Nothing good can come
of this for you.

Forgot who I was dealing with.

You'll be just fine..

'...you little psycho.'

(David)
'Emma!'

We have to go.

(Mrs. Curtis)
It's good to see you, Emma.

Anytime I see
one of Milo's classmates

it reminds me
of how many friends he had

and what a good person he was.

How's your school break going?

Fine, thank you.

Mrs. Curtis,
we have something

that we wanna give to you.

Where did you find that?

Apparently, Milo let Emma
wear it for a while

and...and then when he..

...didn't come back,
she kept it.

She knows it was wrong
and she wants to apologize.

'Isn't that right, Emma?'

It's right.

I'm very sorry.

I shouldn't have kept it.

I don't understand. Milo gave it
to you to wear, why?

It was a game.
I was gonna give it back.

But he..

We never saw him again.

Well, I don't know what to say.

[sniffles]
I'm glad you brought it
back to me.

This whole day is..

I'm still in shock
about Mrs. Ellis.

I'm sorry?

She's dead.

She rolled her car
on Glenvale Avenue

'and she was just here
talking about Milo.'

I-I didn't know.

I'm really sad, daddy.

Mrs. Ellis
was my favorite teacher.

Do we know how it happened?

On the TV, it said there was
a wasp's nest in her car.

'It was a science project
or something and she was stung.'

'I don't know. It doesn't make
any sense to me.'

Daddy, I'm not feeling well.

- Can we go home?
- Sure.

So, now we don't have to talk
about Milo ever again, right?

Are you gonna run, daddy?

Chloe and I
are baking cupcakes today.

[birds chirping]

[whirring]

[intense music]

[keys clacking]

[music continues]

(David)
'Hey.'

We gotta leave soon
for a doctor's appointment.

I'll be ready.

Daddy, I was thinking..

...you're right.

I think something good
will come of this.

I hope so.

[intense music]

Emma, I have some magazines
on the table

you might like
while you wait.

I'm just gonna have
a little chat with your dad.

- If that's okay.
- Oh, of course, Dr. March.

[sighs]

So, how can I help you and Emma?

I don't know. Um..

Well, w-what is your
primary concern?

Emma has always been different

very, very much in a good way..

...but also..

...there's a...coldness.

I don't know how to say it, um..

A lack of emotion. I mean,
she has emotions but, uh..

She laughs and cries
and all that

but it can be, um..

I don't know.

She's lying to me.

And I don't trust her anymore.

Well, it's very common

for children her age to lie.

'Most kids struggle'

'with their emotions.'

They very often don't know how

or what they should be feeling
at any point in time.

'It can be very taxing
on a parent.'

Mr. Grossman,
everyone thinks their issues

are bigger than they are.

'More unique.'

'And o-obviously,
there are the rare cases'

and I've had them, of..

...real psychological illness.

Anyway, I'm looking forward

to talking to Emma.

[intense music]

So, I'm not the kind of doctor

who operates on people
or things like that.

- I'm what's called--
- You're a shrink.

Well, you know that term.

I watch "Intervention."

Oh, yes.

Well, I'm a psychiatrist

which is a fancy word
for someone to talk to

'who can help you
sort things out.'

I don't really
need anything sorted out.

Really?

Well, why is that?

I mean,
most people have something

'that they would like
to be different.'

I don't.

Oh, I see.

I understand
that your friend Milo

'recently passed away?'

That's right.

Well, how did that
make you feel?

'Pretty sad, I bet.'

I cried for two days.

Oh, yeah.

I understand.

'Was that the first time
someone you knew died?'

No.

Oh. I see.

Dr. March..

...why do people get so upset

when people die?

It's gonna happen
to everyone sooner or later.

Mm.
It's a great question, Emma.

We all do know
it's inevitable

and we grieve anyway.

You know, to feel

or to have empathy for others..

'...is what it means
to be human.'

[indistinct chatter]

[laughter]

(Dr. March)
'That's so funny.'

Emma, I'm gonna tell you
a secret.

I did the exact
same things as you

when I was your age.

[both chuckle]

[chuckles]
I see.

Oh.

Well, you too seemed
to really hit it off.

Oh, we had a great talk.

- Didn't we, Emma?
- Yes.

- Um, daddy, can I go outside?
- Sure.

Mm, Mr. Grossman,
I have seen

thousands of kids
in my practice

and Emma seems 100 percent

perfectly average.

In fact...I told her

she reminds me of myself.

(Chloe)
'How'd the appointment go?'

Fine.

Emma's up in her room.

Well, I guess I better
put on some clothes

head up there.

Hope you don't mind me
taking advantage of the sun.

No, you...gotta take
advantage of it.

Gotta take advantage. Yup.

Don't you have any friends?

What do you care?

- Everyone thinks you're mental.
- Whatever, Chloe.

Now that everyone knows
you stole that dead kid's medal

it's just a matter of time.

Matter of time until what?

Until they find out
what you did to him.

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

Maybe you'll end up
in the little pink chair.

I'm gonna have my dad
get rid of you.

Go for it. He won't do it.

Your dad and I
understand each other.

You can give me
that psycho stare

all you want,
but the fact is this

your dad's a DILF

D-I-L-F, okay?

And he's single and he was
totally just scoping me out.

You wouldn't mind if
he and I hooked up, would you?

The poor guy needs a release.

I mean, just look at him.

Stay away from my dad.

Or what?

Wouldn't I make
a good stepmom?

You don't scare me,
little girl.

I don't care
if you stood there

and watched
that little kid drown

'or even if you pushed him in.'

Where I come from

a spoilt little princess
like you

ain't nothing.

Believe me.

It's not nice
to threaten people.

But you and me..

...we're not nice.

Are we?

[intense music]

[crickets chirping]

Oh, Emma, you scared me.

Do you like Chloe?

- Wait, what?
- She said that you like her.

That you...understand
each other.

She said she could be
my stepmother some day.

W-whoa, whoa, whoa, wait..
Hold on a second.

First of all,
that would never happen

and why would she
say something like that?

- You tell me.
- Emma.

I don't want
a stepmother...ever.

Everything's gonna be okay.

I have a meeting,
but I'll be home early.

Okay? And we'll talk.

Great. I'll wait up.

Have fun on your date.

- So you never remarried?
- No.

Like playing the field
that much, huh?

[scoffs]
Yeah, I love it.

It's so fulfilling.

I mean, you know, especially
raising a young girl.

[instrumental music]

[lamp flickering]

Great.

[clattering]

[sighs]

When I first
opened the store..

...I had about four months.

'I was really worried,
but then'

business picked up

and it's been really good
for six years now.

Emma?

[music continues]

'Dammit, Emma!'

[train chugging]

Emma?

[music continues]

[grunts]

Emma!

Emma, let me out of here.
This isn't funny!

Emma!

[crickets chirping]

[fire crackling]

[indistinct chatter]

Emma?

Emma!

[glass shatters]

[screams]

[screaming]

[intense music]

Let me through, it's my house!

[indistinct chatter]

Emma!

Sir, are you the homeowner..
Are you the homeowner.

Yes, yes.
I have a nine year-old daughter.

Her name is Emma.
She's here with her nanny.

Sir, your daughter is fine,
she's in the house

with one of my deputies.

Now, unfortunately there's been
a terrible accident.

The nanny, Chloe,
was in the work shed

'when the fire broke out.'

[indistinct chatter]

[belches]

I think she's in a shock..

...and hasn't told us much,
but apparently

the young woman
would sneak a smoke

'in the work shed.'

[dramatic music]

Honey bear.

It's okay, daddy.

Nothing happened to me.

[music continues]

Emma, I know you're awake.

I think we're in trouble.

I think we're both
in very big trouble.

And we need to talk and
I need you to tell me the truth.

I'm your father. I love you.

I'm going to do anything I can
to help you.

[sighs]

You hurt Milo, didn't you?

Didn't you?

He was gonna tell on me
that I took his medal.

I didn't mean to hurt him.

I only pushed him.

He fell.

Kept on yelling and yelling
that he couldn't swim.

I didn't believe him.

He always over-exaggerated.

And after a while..

...he stopped yelling
and I couldn't see him anymore.

I'm so sorry, daddy.

I don't wanna
get into trouble.

I won't do it again.

And Mrs. Livia,
your first nanny..

...what happened to her?

(Emma)
'She should've never grabbed
my arm.'

So I kicked her.

She fell down the stairs.

I didn't do anything wrong.

She's the adult.

She should've
protected herself better.

And Mrs. Ellis and the wasps?

And tonight,
what did you do to Chloe?

Emma!

The sheriff will get to
the bottom of this eventually.

- So don't get me the bullshit--
- You said bullshit.

Emma, do you know
what could happen to you?

Do you?

What could happen to us?

Yes, daddy.

'They're gonna take me
and they're gonna put me'

in the lil' chair, in the lil'
pink electric chair.

I really don't wanna go there.

[sobbing]
I don't wanna pee myself.

Emma, what are you
talking about?

Chloe said she knew about Milo
and one day everyone would.

She said that they
were gonna take me

to this little electric chair

they put kids in.

And she told me
she was gonna be my stepmother.

- E-Emma, calm down--
- I don't want a stepmother!

'Ever!'

She stole pills
from your room.

I watched.

She fooled you.

You weren't gonna do
anything about it.

Not one thing!

So you did?

Isn't that right?

Someone had to.

[intense music]

(Dr. March on speaker)
'This is Dr. March.'

'I'm out of the office
for the next two weeks.'

'If this is an emergency,
please call 9-1-1.'

'Or you can call my associate,
Dr. Max'

'at 9-1-4 5-5-5 0-1-1-3.'

[phone beeps]

[sighs]

[cellphone ringing]

- This is David.
- Well, hi, Mr. Grossman.

This is Sheriff Peterson.
Uh, sorry to call you so early.

Just checking to see that you
and Emma were doin' okay.

[sighs]
Yeah. Yeah, we're doing okay.
Thank you.

(Peterson on phone)
'Good, good,
also I was wondering'

'uh, when would be
a good time to talk?'

'I don't wanna intrude,
but..'

'...there are some questions
I need to ask you and Emma.'

If that's possible.

(David on phone)
'Uh..'

Yeah, Emma's very sick.

She's upset about the accidents.
You can imagine.

And I have a,
a big day at work.

Could we postpone?
Maybe for a few days?

How's Monday? You and Emma?

I'll come by the house.

Sure, t-that'll be great.
I'll see you then.

[phone beeps]

Emma.

Pack your things.

We have to leave.

[dramatic music]

Where are we going?

The lake house.

Why? You hate it there.

I don't hate it there.

That's what you said once.

How long will we be there?

I don't know.

Well, what are we gonna
do there?

I just need a place to think.

(Brian)
'Ha-ha! There he is!'

Hey, look at you.
Well, you haven't changed a bit.

Well, cold air, hard work,
no cable TV

and you too could live forever.

[chuckles]

Hey, is that
who I think it is?

It can't be,
'cause Emma's just a baby

and you're a full-grown woman.

- It's very nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you, too.

You look just like your ma.

Well, I'm glad you finally
got to come up here.

Your sister's been
bogarting the place.

Angela would live here full-time
if she could.

(Brian)
Well, if you need anything

you let me know
and I'll be right up.

And it's, uh, good to see you
after all the years, Emma.

- You, too.
- Thanks, Brian.

- I'll call ya if I need ya.
- Alright.

[birds chirping]

(Angela on laptop)
'You still should've called me,
David.'

What good
would that have done?

And I wasn't thinkin' straight.

Still not thinking straight.

Chloe, that poor girl.

How could such a thing happen?

What did the police
or-or firefighters say?

They're...investigating.

(Angela on laptop)
'Well, how's Emma?'

'Should I come up
to the lake house?'

'I could take off work.'

No.

It's fine. We're just
taking some time away.

- 'Look, I gotta go.'
- Hey, call me.

I'm worried about you,
David.

[cellphone ringing]

Hello?

We found the source
of the fire.

It was deliberately set.

- Do you know who did it?
- 'Not yet.'

But, from what we sent the lab,
we'll know pretty soon.

(David)
'Okay, alright.'

- Keep me posted.
- 'Will do.'

[phone beeps]

[sighs]

[sighs]

[screaming]

[gasps]

[breathing heavily]

[birds chirping]

[cellphone ringing]

Aren't you gonna answer?

[mellow music]

[crows cawing]

(man on laptop)
'But Tim started
with a family pet'

'but as Timothy grew,
so did his crimes.'

'Dr. Michalowitz,
an expert'

'on violent child sociopaths
explains.'

(Dr. Michalowitz on laptop)
'The violence seems to be
inside them'

'buried like a bad seed.'

'Eventually grows
and once it starts'

'it doesn't seem to stop.'

Emma.

I don't like you
sneaking around like that.

How long were you
standing there?

You snooping on me?

Think you were snooping on me.

I told you.

I didn't do anything wrong.

I wouldn't have hurt anyone
for no reason.

I'll never ever do that.

Do you think I would?

Do you, daddy?

I don't know anymore.

That makes me sad.

[dramatic music]

[crickets chirping]

[dramatic music]

[music continues]

[gas hissing]

[music continues]

[birds chirping]

[sniffles]

[intense music]

[coughing]

Why?

Why would you do that to me?

I'm the only person you have.

No.

If something happened to you,
I'd live with Aunt Angela.

At least she thinks I'm nice.

Oh, my God.

Angela, she tried to kill me.

She turned on all the gas
in the house.

(Angela on phone)
'David, what you're saying'

'doesn't make any sense.'

- 'You're talking about Emma.'
- And you don't understand!

(Angela)
'She's nine years old.'

'Nine-year-olds
don't kill people.'

'Listen to yourself.'

'You need help.
Let me come get you.'

She needs help.

But I'm not going
to let them take her away.

She's not gonna live the rest
of her life in some institution.

Or prison.

I'm her father.

I have to protect her.

And I have protected her.

I'm so sorry, Angela.

I am so deeply sorry

but there is no other way
and I have thought

about every other option
because..

...she'll do it again.

David? David, wait.

W-w-what have you done?

It's done.

[owl hooting]

[whimpers]
Night, night, daddy.

[gunshot]

[intense music]

- You're alive?
- Yes, daddy.

(Emma)
'Didn't drink the hot chocolate
you made for me.'

You did...
when I switched them.

(woman on phone)
'9-1-1, what's the emergency?'

[screaming]

Help me!
My dad's trying to kill me!

(woman on phone)
'I'm sorry,
can you say that again?'

- 'Emma!'
- 'What is your emergency?'

(Emma)
'I'm Emma Grossman.
I'm at our lake house.'

Emma!

[music continues]

Emma?

Emma?

Emma, I know you're in there.

[knock on door]

Emma! Open the door!

[sobbing]

'Emma!'

'Open the..'

Emma, just come out.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

'We'll just go to sleep
together.'

We'll go see mommy.

'Emma!'

[screams]

Stop right there, David.
What the hell's going on?

Help! He's trying to kill me!

Don't listen to her.

She's not right. There's
something wrong with her.

- Put down the gun.
- I have to do this.

Plea..

I have to protect her
from herself.

'They're coming for her.'

I will not let you
hurt that girl.

That's just the problem.

'Nothing hurts her.'

[sirens wailing]

Forgive me.

He was gonna shoot
that little girl. No question.

I Just wish
I'd gotten here sooner.

I'm so sorry, Emma.

- Was daddy sick?
- 'Yes.'

Yes, I think so.

I think your daddy was sick.

Everything's gonna be okay.

Angela..

...can we go home?

Can I have ice cream?

You can have whatever you want.
