Oh, I got it. Okay. Here we go.

-Yeah! -[woman] Yeah.

Official YIFY movies site: YTS.MX

-[girl] No. -[woman] Alright.

[suspense music]

[man] Come on, Will!

Hit it and quit it, man.

Let's go, man!

[panting] Shut up, Ray.

Baby.

Oh! Beautiful!

Don't ever leave me.

Promise?

I promise.

[chuckles]

Let's going around. Let's go!

[suspense music]

[woman] Let's go. You ready? Come on. The water's warm.

Come on. Let's just go up to our knees.

I don't want to.

What is it?

I can't swim.

[suspense music]

[Ray] Smash and grab galore, baby.

Smash and grab.

Check out that place, man. That is sweet.

We scouted this last week. I know exactly where I'm going.

[woman] Abby, why didn't you tell me

you were afraid of the water?

You know it's okay. A lot of people don't like to swim.

You're not mad?

No.

What would make you think that?

Well, you said you wanted to go to the beach,

-I don't wanna mess things up. -No, no, sweetie.

Your mum just wanted us all to be together.

To the beach, the park,

-a trip to the moon. Anywhere. -Wherever.

After, this we'll go home, pop popcorn and watch a movie.

How's that?

-Okay. -Alright.

Sure you can't come over?

I've got a meeting this afternoon.

I have to stop by and pick up my sponsor.

[suspense music]

[Ray] Car's not there.

Let's check it out.

This neighborhood is dead, man. Let's go do this.

Please be careful, baby.

Hey, I love you.

I love you, too.

[suspense music]

[panting]

Here.

Abby?

What's going on back there?

Is there something you want to talk about?

No, I was just thinking about when I was little.

What about when you were little?

I was at this big pool.

This girl took me all the way out to the middle.

I said, "Don't let my head go under."

And she said she wouldn't.

All of a sudden, she shoved my head.

Held it down... like this.

I thought I was gonna drown.

Oh, sweetie, who did that to you?

The girl at my last foster home.

[suspense music]

Maybe you could take swimming lessons.

You know, with a teacher,

who knows how to swim and can teach you.

I suppose.

Okay. We'll think about it.

Can I go pick a movie now?

Of course you can.

[gasps]

[Will] Take it easy. All right.

Anybody else in this house? Are you sure? okay.

It's simple. You both stay very quiet,

do exactly as I say, nobody gets hurt.

Is that understood? Is that understood?

-[cries] -Don't you dare hurt her!

Will you listen to what I say?

Okay, nice and slowly, give me your cell phone.

Drop the purse.

Checkbook, bank statements.

-Where are they? -[mumbling] In the bedroom.

-Where's that? -In the back.

We're going. Let's go.

Nice and easy. Nice and easy!

-Mommy. -[mumbling]

[Ray] Make it quick.

[moaning]

Stop.

Very nice.

[panting]

You and I are gonna have a good time later.

-[dramatic music] -[Will chuckles]

This is how this is gonna work.

We're gonna go to the banks.

You're gonna empty out those accounts.

I'm gonna be in the backseat of your car

on the phone with my partner,

who's gonna be here with your kid.

If you do anything suspicious,

and I mean anything...

your daughter dies.

You understand that?

-Yes. -She dies.

Get on your knees.

Get on your knees!

Nice and slowly,

you're gonna open up that safe.

[panting]

That's everything.

-[panting] -One minute!

Let's go. We don't have all day!

Hey!

Give me a second!

[moans]

[moaning]

Oh, man.

[woman] 911.

[steps approaching]

Get out of my house.

Abby...

-Ray! -Go, go, go, go, go!

-Where's Will? -Will ain't coming.

-We had a little problem. -What do you mean?

-That beach shot him. -What?

Will's dead!

You're gonna drive this car or I'm gonna cut you.

Now, let's get out of here.

[police siren]

Abby, open the door, baby. It's mommy.

Abby! Abby!

You're safe.

[sighs]

[suspense music]

Get off at the next exit.

They're probably all over the freeways right now.

We'll take the back way.

Everything's gonna be cool. We're gonna stick with the plan.

Forget the plan. My boyfriend is dead because of her.

It's the price of doing business. He knew what he was getting into.

-How did this happen? -I have no idea.

I hear a gunshot, I come around the corner,

he's laying dead in front of the fireplace,

she's pointing a gun at me. I didn't stick around to ask.

I wanna go back.

We're going to Reno, okay?

We're never going back to L.A. I want you to forget about that.

If you even think about turning this thing around, I'm gonna beat your ass.

Nicole. I got here as fast as I could. Are you okay?

Are you okay, sweetie?

We're hanging in there. I don't think it's hit us yet.

[Eric] No, no, no.

Miss Johnson, I need you inside.

I have some questions for you.

Alright. Just a minute, please.

Sure.

Abby.

I'm gonna go inside and talk with the detective.

And you're gonna stay here with Eric, okay?

-I'll be right back. -Okay.

Come here, sweetie.

So, uh...

Miss Johnson.

[suspense music]

I'm sorry I have to ask you to do this, but...

Do you recognize this man?

Never seen him before.

-You're sure? -Mm-Hm.

It doesn't surprise me.

Probably cased the neighborhood,

and picked your house at random.

What about that other guy? What if he comes back?

Ha-ha. Comes back?

I've been working robbery-homicide for fifteen years now.

I've never had one come back.

You know he's getting as far away from here as possible.

Once we have a positive I.D. on the dead guy,

we'll have a better idea and start looking for his friend.

And listen, you're very lucky you knew how to work that gun.

A lot of women in this situation got hurt really bad.

[man] Detective.

Excuse me.

[suspense music]

[Jade] Don't ever leave me.

Hey, I love you.

What are you doing?

I have to pee.

[moaning] Really?

I didn't know girls went pee-pee.

[laughs]

[suspense music]

Make it quick, all right?

Come on, man.

Jade, what the hell are you doing?

[honking]

[moaning]

Jade, what the hell are you doing?

Chicks, man.

[whistling]

Yo, Jade.

Yo!

Jade!

Jade, quit screwing around.

I am gonna beat her ass.

[screams]

[moaning]

Ray?

[moaning]

[Abby] Thank you for dinner.

Oh, you're welcome, sweetheart. My pleasure.

You wanna brush your teeth and get ready for bed?

Which one's my room?

The guest room is down the hall

and to the right.

-Am I gonna sleep by myself? -No.

No.

I'm gonna be in there in just a few minutes.

Okay.

I should've been there.

I keep thinking about what those guys could've done to you...

I don't wanna talk about it.

Okay. I'm sorry... Nic.

It's okay. I just...

I just don't wanna talk about it.

Okay.

[sad music]

[suspense music]

[moaning]

[sighs]

[moaning]

-[suspense music] -[gasps]

Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.

-The gate was open. -Oh.

That's okay. I was just taking this outside.

-Need help? -No. I... can do it later.

Um... come in.

Thank you.

I thought you might be happy to know the medical examiner

was able to make a positive I.D. on the dead guy.

William Davenport.

He was out on parole for armed robbery.

What was he even doing out?

California prisons are overcrowded.

Good time means early release.

Even for violent felons?

Yeah. Government is broke.

They'll do anything to save a buck,

except cut their own perks, of course.

Anyway, we checked out his residence in Fillmore.

And he was listed as the sole renter,

we think he might have been living with some other people.

We just haven't been able to I.D. them yet.

So, you have no idea who the other guy was.

No, not yet.

Where in Fillmore?

I can't discuss that.

Why not? Don't I have a right to know

who broke into my house and threatened my daughter's life?

[detective] I think you understand we can't have people out there doing our job.

We'll find this guy.

You just need to be patient and let us handle it.

[suspense music]

Put those over there, and be careful. That's fine china.

-...Please. -Nicole.

You don't need to be here today. I told you to go home.

Home is the last place I wanna be right now.

Don't worry. I've opened five restaurants in my time.

Yeah, well, this is my first.

And we've got it all covered.

Can I give you some advice?

-No. -You should see a therapist.

-I would if I were you. -I said I'm fine.

I knew you'd be stubborn about this, so...

I brought you this.

It's a support group.

They meet every Monday over

at the Van Nuys Community Center.

My sister went there after she got robbed. It helped.

Did you hear back from the pastry guy?

-Nicole! -What? I got the message.

I'll consider the support thing

-if it makes you happy. -Very happy.

And yes, I heard back from the pastry guy--

-Bread-- -And the bread guy,

and the meat guy. Now get out of here.

Okay.

Geo, are you working here or what?

[suspense music]

Excuse me.

[screams]

-[moaning] -I could kill you right now,

-but I won't. -[moaning]

I'm gonna watch you suffer.

[indistinct noises]

[panting]

[Abby] Mom?

Abby!

What are you doing?

I gotta drink water.

Oh.

Why do you have a knife?

Um...

I...

brought it to my room by mistake.

-Are you scared? -No, sweetie. Are you?

Just a little.

Abby, I'm not gonna let anything happen to you.

Ever.

I won't let anything happen

to you either, Mom.

[Nicole] I can't sleep.

I keep a knife by my bed.

I mean, I worry about my daughter constantly when she's at school.

I want my life back.

I want to do something, help the police catch this guy who got away.

I don't know, something.

I even have these nightmares where I catch him myself, I...

dream about what I would do to him.

No, that's normal.

Part of recovering or taking your life back

is being able to control those thoughts.

Don't let them control you.

[woman] Can I say something?

[man] Of course.

[suspense music]

I know that you have to move on,

and that's the point of all of this.

But it's not that easy.

The day that my husband Kyle was killed,

my life changed forever.

I spent a lot of time thinking about what I'd do if I found his killer.

So, I know how Nicole feels.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cut you off.

-I just... -No.

Thank you.

[man] Okay, would anyone else like to say something?

How about one of the gentlemen? How about you, young man?

[young man] Okay, well...

I've had a real hard time

talking about this to my family.

[suspense music]

[suspense music continues]

-How's the coffee? -Oh!

-Sorry. Did I scare you? -That's okay.

Um...

It's... it's Megan, right?

Yeah. Good memory.

Oh, I was very appreciative

of what you said back in there.

I don't know, I thought that a support group would be more... supportive.

One would think.

Yeah.

You didn't get a chance to finish telling your story.

Um...

What happened to Kyle?

You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to.

-I... -No, no, it's fine.

That's what we're here for, right?

He went to the bank,

and someone came in to rob the place.

The security guard started shooting,

and he was killed in the crossfire.

I'm so sorry.

What happened to the robber?

Got away.

The police caught up with him in New Mexico.

Shot him.

You know, I think about him every day.

My boyfriend meant the world to me.

I thought you said he was your husband.

[suspense music]

Yeah...

We were engaged.

[man] Okay, everybody.

We're ready to start back up again.

So, enough about me.

Did you say you were opening a restaurant soon?

Yeah. This Friday in Pasadena.

It's been hard to focus on it with all this.

That wouldn't be the Moon River Cafe, would it?

-Yeah. Actually, it is. -No way. I live in Glendale.

-I was thinking about checking it out. -Oh, you should.

My chef Maurice makes the best beef stroganoff.

Sounds great. I'll definitely come then.

Good.

[suspense music]

Hello!

[moaning]

[cutlery clashing]

[Tricia] So, what was your favorite thing that happened in school today?

Well, in science, we made a big volcano.

-Seriously? -And it blew up.

-[both laugh] -You are so smart.

You have a little science genius in you, huh?

So, when can I tell all my friends that Nicole's my real mom?

Well, if everything goes okay,

-how about a month? -Awesome!

Abigail, Tricia and I need to talk,

so why don't you

go get a head start on your homework?

Okay. Bye, Tricia.

Good-bye, sweetheart. See you next time.

She seems to be holding up well.

She is. She's... an incredibly strong little girl.

How about you?

Keeping it together.

Trying to set a good example. Just get things back to normal.

Good.

Nicole, I read the police report.

Why didn't you tell us that you owned a firearm?

Oh, I...

I think I just forgot about it. You know, it's...

been in the safe for about five years, and I...

have never used it.

I'm gonna trust Abigail doesn't know the combination to the safe, correct?

No, no.

Is there anything else that we need to know?

Is this going to affect the adoption process in any way?

I don't make the final decision,

but just make sure that nothing else goes wrong.

Yeah.

[suspense music]

[Eric] Yeah, but Tricia didn't actually say

it'll hurt your chances, did she?

No, but the look on her face.

I don't know. Maybe I'm just being paranoid.

Do you think it would help if you and I...

made things more permanent?

What do you mean, like get married?

Yeah. You know, two-parent family,

a dog, a white picket fence. You know, the whole deal.

It might, but it might just complicate things.

[chuckles] You still think I'm gonna be that guy

at the party who embarrasses you...

Eric, twenty-one months of sobriety is great.

But when you and I broke up, it was...

It was a blessing.

Oh.

Don't get the wrong idea.

I cried for days.

I wanted a family with you.

And when I realized that that couldn't happen, I went looking.

And I found...

the most amazing, beautiful little girl.

Breaking up with you allowed Abigail into my life.

Hey, am I incredible or what?

And you know, we can still have that family.

You, me and Abby.

I just want to get things finalized with the county first.

I need to know that Abby is here to stay,

and, uh...

and then I can start to think about you and me.

Alright. I understand.

[suspense music]

[Nicole] Let's go. You ready? Come on. The water's warm.

Let's just go up to our knees.

[Abby] I don't want to.

-Why not? -I can't swim.

[suspense music continues]

[Nicole] I want that soup hot!

-That salmon is perfection. -Not scalding.

How are we going on my stroganoff?

-Five more minutes. -Nicole... Okay. Nicole.

Go eat with your daughter before she leaves. We got this.

Okay, those two filets for table twelve.

We got it. It's done. Everything's going great.

-Couldn't be better. I love you. -Alright.

I love you more than life itself. Go.

You too.

Hi. I'm here to meet a friend.

-Can I look around for her? -Sure.

[soft music]

[indistinct chatter]

[suspense music]

[indistinct chatter]

-[Abby] Hi, Mom. -[Nicole] Hi.

[Eric] It's going great, in that table,

they were talking about how much they loved the salad.

[Nicole] Maurice says it's under control.

What do you want to happen?

Oh, looks good to me.

Megan. I'm so glad you could make it.

-Me, too. You look gorgeous. -Thank you. So do you.

Eric, this is Megan Hauser.

We met in our support group.

Megan, this is my boyfriend Eric, and...

-Nice to meet you. -My wonderful daughter Abigail.

Hi. [chuckles] I was just looking for you.

-There are so many people here. -I know. More than I expected.

-Are you here with someone? -No, actually it's just me.

-Where are you sitting? -Over at the bar.

Oh. Why don't you sit with us?

-Please. -Yeah.

-Please. -Yeah?

We were about to get some salad.

You have to try the dressing,

an old family recipe. It's fabulous.

Oh, that's... [chuckles]

-Okay. -Good.

[suspense music]

Okay, honey, let's go.

Why don't you try some of the pasta salad? This is for you.

[Jade] So Eric, are you in the restaurant business, too?

You mean, other than picking out all the lighting?

And helping me repaint the entire place.

No, I'm not in the restaurant thing. Architecture and design.

He's wonderful. He submitted a proposal on that new art center downtown.

-Wow. That's impressive. -Yeah, well, we'll see.

So... what do you do, Megan?

-I'm a private swim teacher. -Really?

I go to people's homes and teach them how to swim one on one.

-How about that, Abigail? -Hmm...

Were you thinking of taking swimming lessons?

We were talking about it.

Well, everybody should know how to swim.

If you're interested, give me a call.

What do you think?

You said you might want to try it.

-Maybe. -[chuckles] It's a lot of fun.

We play games,

and I bring over swim toys.

You even get a trophy after your third lesson.

-Wow. -I think it's a great idea.

Do I have to go under the water?

No. You don't have to do anything you don't want to do.

Besides, I will be there right next to you the whole time.

I got your back.

Okay.

That sounds wonderful.

I have an opening tomorrow afternoon.

-That's perfect. -Great.

You didn't get any of the pine nut dressing.

-[suspense music] -Grandmother's secret recipe.

I'm...

I'm actually allergic to nuts.

Oh, I am so sorry.

-I will get you some more salad. -Forget it.

To the best new restaurant in L.A.

To the best restaurant in the world.

-Hear, hear. -Cheers.

[Nicole] Maurice, I think we're all going to sleep well tonight. Thank you, thank you.

You knocked it out of the park. Everything was perfect.

[Maurice] See, I told you not to worry.

Oh, my God, I owe you big time.

-Talk to you tomorrow, okay? -Good-bye.

-You gonna tuck me in? -Of course I am. Let's go.

Ooh...

Oh, you okay?

-Ooh. -Mom.

[ambulance siren]

Thanks for taking Abby to Hannah's.

Oh, of course. No problem.

So what did the doctor say to you, anyway?

She gave me something to settle my stomach.

She doesn't know what it is.

Maybe the flu or something. I don't...

Miss Johnson?

-Yes? -Well, you are good to go.

Now remember, if you start throwing up again,

-come back and see me, okay? -Thank you, doctor.

By the way, you didn't eat at the Moon River Cafe, did you?

[suspense music]

Um, I did... Why?

A couple of people have been in this morning

with the same symptoms.

They both ate dinner there last night.

If I were you, I'd stay away from that place.

Feel better.

So sorry. After everything that happened this morning, I...

I just completely forgot about the lesson.

Honestly, it's fine. I can come back

-some other time or something. -No. No, no, no, it's okay.

Abby, honey, hurry up, okay?

I really appreciate this.

It's okay, sweetie.

You just do whatever Megan tells you to do.

She's not gonna let anything bad happen to you, okay?

We're gonna get in and we're gonna start really easy

by just blowing some bubbles, okay?

Don't worry.

-You can trust me. -[telephone rings]

Oh, that's probably my lawyer. I...

-Don't worry. We're fine. -Okay. Great.

[Walter] Nicole, a bunch of people have gotten sick.

How many people are we talking about?

Nine so far.

[Nicole] They all claim to have started to feel ill

-within three to five hours after eating? -That's right.

This is crazy.

I got you. Don't worry.

[suspense music]

[Nicole] Are any of them still in the hospital?

Mm-Hm. One elderly lady.

Doctors say she'll recover,

but this bug, this contaminant, or whatever it is,

made her violently ill.

Maybe it was one of our suppliers.

-Okay, let's try it on one arm. -Okay.

[splashing]

Good job. You want to try it by yourself?

-Okay. -Put your hands on the brick.

And put your head underwater.

You should be prepared for the story to hit the press.

No.

[suspense music]

-Boo! -[shouts]

Your mom is gonna be so surprised when she sees

you can swim all the way across the pool all by yourself.

-I think you can do it. -Maybe if you could help me.

The lawyers are gonna try to scare off more clients.

More plaintiffs means more damages means... you know.

Oh! Look at you go!

-Yeah. -Good job. You did it.

You're doing it all by yourself. Look, I'm not even holding.

-Cool. -Okay, go back to the wall.

Good job. Look how good you are.

-You should practice every day. -With you?

No, I can't be here every day, silly.

But you should practice on your own.

Remember, don't let your mommy see.

You don't want to ruin the surprise, right?

-Right. -Good girl.

[suspense music]

Alright. I... I'll bring in the insurance policy

and the health inspection paperwork.

Good. We'll figure something out.

Okay. Thanks, Walter. I... I'll see you tomorrow.

Good-bye.

[suspense music]

Abigail?

Twelve seconds! Alright!

Mom, I held my breath for twelve whole seconds.

That's great, sweetie.

She's fearless.

-Where can I go change? -Um...

The bathroom is down the hall on your right.

You all right?

Yeah.

[suspense music]

-Did you go under the water? -Yeah. We blew bubbles.

-You blew bubbles? -Yeah.

Did you hold your breath?

-Are you gonna turn into a little fish on me? -Maybe.

-A little dolphin? -Okay.

I tell you what, I'll make lunch and you get ready. Alright?

[sad music]

-[Will] You need a ride? -[Jade] No.

Come on. I think you do.

And what do I have to do for it?

Nothing. Just smile.

-Right. -I'm serious. That's all I want.

Look, I'm trying to do something nice here.

See? And that was sort of pretty. Sort of.

Look, it's cool if you wanna give me a ride, okay? But that's it.

I wouldn't do anything more if you paid me.

Now if you begged me to kiss you, that's a different story.

Are you gonna drive or what?

This ride with me could change your life.

I seriously doubt that.

Don't underestimate me, doll.

Doll?

You never told me your name.

It's Jade.

Nice to meet you, Jade. I'm Will.

[Nicole] Is everything okay?

Um... sorry.

I just remembered your story from the group.

Is this where he died?

Yeah. That's where he fell.

Where did you shoot him?

He brought me back here.

Um...

He came... closer to me.

And then what?

You and I are gonna have a good time later on.

[cries]

Um...

He made me open the safe.

Made me fill the bag.

How did you get the gun?

It all happened so fast.

His friend yelled something down the hall.

He turned that way,

and, um...

And then, that's when I...

grabbed it from the safe.

And before he could turn around...

You shot him in the back.

Maybe you should've just given him the money.

I mean, do you ever think about that?

If you had have just done everything that he said,

maybe nothing bad would've happened.

I couldn't take that chance.

I had Abby.

I mean, they came into my house and stuck a gun to my head,

and put a knife to my daughter's throat.

I'm glad he will never have the chance to do something like that ever again.

I'm sorry.

Do you want some lunch or something?

No.

Thank you.

[sighs]

[shouts]

[suspense music]

[cries]

[cries]

[shouts]

[Nicole] We'll toss out every tin of food.

We'll scrub every square inch of this place. Please...

Miss Johnson, until we know what kind of contaminant we're dealing with,

-I have to shut you down. -For how long?

It'll take at least a week to get the results back from the lab,

it might take a few weeks to clean the place up, depending on what the problem is.

Weeks? What about my staff? They have to work.

I'm sorry. I'll let you know when the results come in.

Okay. We have to figure out what happened.

Hey, don't look at me or my staff.

We run a clean kitchen here.

Not that anyone's ever gonna believe it.

[suspense music]

Twenty years of my life in this business, and it's come to this.

-Maurice, hold on. This isn't... -Did you read the paper?

That's me. "The poison chef." Who's gonna hire me now?

[Nicole] Whatever this is, I know it's not your fault.

It was just some freak accident or something.

I don't know, but we can start over.

[Maurice] A year of my life helping launch this place, working for practically nothing.

I can't go through this again.

Maurice.

I'm sorry, Nicole. I'm done.

Wait.

[Eric] I... I can't believe he just quit like that.

Neither can I. He was one of my oldest friends.

And the thing is, I know it wasn't his fault.

You know when I was talking to that inspector...

I had this crazy thought.

What if somebody did that on purpose?

-Put poison in the food? -Who?

What if that guy came back?

What-- The guy who robbed you? Why-- why would he do that?

To get back at me for killing his friend.

-I... -Like I said, crazy thought.

[suspense music]

[Eric] I'll tell you what you're gonna do.

You're gonna find another crew,

find another location, and open a new place.

With what? I already mortgaged this place to open Moon River.

That money's gone.

You could let me help you. I have some money saved up.

I can't let you do that.

-Why not? -Because...

these are my problems, not yours.

[Eric chuckles] You know, every time I-- I--

I bring up the subject of us working together,

it's like this-- this wall just comes up.

That's not true.

Look, I've done everything that I can

to show you that I've changed.

If that's not good enough,

or you don't see some sort of future with me,

just-- just let me know now, okay?

Two years ago, when you basically chose alcohol over me,

that hurt.

I know it did, and I made a mistake.

[Nicole] You were talking about marriage and commitment,

and then look what happened.

So, yes,

it's hard for me to trust you.

And it's hard for me to get excited about the idea of making things permanent.

[suspense music]

You have to believe me when I tell you,

I realized, going through all that,

how important you are to me.

Eh...

Eh...

I'm sorry. Sorry. I...

Sorry. I don't know why I just went off on you like that...

Don't. I had it coming.

Mom!

-It's been a hell of a day. -I know.

I know you've been through a lot. It's okay, I understand.

Mommy, help!

Help!

Help! Help!

[dramatic music]

Abby!

Honey, are you okay? What were you doing swimming in the pool by yourself?

I told you never to do that.

I know, but I wanted to surprise you.

Surprise me? You could have died surprising me.

-Megan said to. -Megan said what?

To practice swimming when you weren't looking.

She said I told her to get in the water alone?

Mm-Hm. To surprise me.

Oh, my God. No, that is crazy.

I would never tell her to do that.

I told her to practice when I'm there,

and you'd be surprised at what a good swimmer she's become.

I can't believe she did that.

It's a very good thing Eric and I were there to hear her crying for help.

No kidding. The next time I come, I'll make sure to tell her

she's supposed to go nowhere near the water by herself.

We'll hold off on the swimming lessons for a while.

No, no, that is the worst thing that you could do,

especially if she almost just drowned.

The longer you wait, the more scared of the water she'll become.

-It's just not the right time. -It is though.

That's... That's what I'm trying to tell you,

-until she's completely pool... -Megan.

We're done.

Maybe, we can try again next summer.

Sure.

Whatever you think is best.

[suspense music]

Are you sure you didn't get it mixed up just a little?

No. She said to surprise you.

She did, huh?

Well, I don't think she knows how to talk to kids.

Maybe Eric should give you swimming lessons

-from now on. -Cool.

Are you and Eric gonna get married?

Now what makes you ask that?

My friend Hannah thinks he's kind of cute.

[chuckles] She does, does she?

So, you should marry him before she does.

Would you like that?

Mm-Hm.

-You would. -Yeah.

Well, I'll keep that in mind.

[suspense music]

[explosion]

[telephone rings]

-Hello. -[Eric] Honey, wake up.

The restaurant's on fire.

Turn on the TV.

It's on the news.

[man] As you can see, it's a massive fire.

Lots of flame and smoke. A number of fire crews

are on the scene trying to get this under control.

-Oh my God. -Flames are high in the air.

It looks like they're starting to get totally engulfed...

[suspense music]

[Nicole] It was the second robber, the one that got away.

[Eric] The one that you can't seem to locate.

So, you think he contaminated the food,

and he came back and burned down the restaurant.

I do. We do.

And do you have any evidence?

The fact that my restaurant was perfectly clean.

It passed inspection the week before we opened, and now this fire.

Someone is doing this to me on purpose.

The only person that I can think of

is the man who broke into my house.

He wants to get back at me for...

For killing his friend.

That's a very interesting theory you have. Very.

But there's something here that just doesn't add up.

Why? Why would this man go through the trouble

of closing your restaurant, succeeding,

and then coming back and burning it down anyway? Why?

I don't know. Vindictiveness, maybe.

I actually worked on a case just like this one

several years back.

This man owned an old apartment building.

It was declared uninhabitable by the city, and then just boom.

One day, it magically caught fire.

It wasn't hard for us to figure out exactly who lit that match.

So-- so-- so what are you implying?

Nicole set fire to the restaurant herself?

You had the most to gain, didn't you?

I mean, your restaurant was closed,

you realized you weren't gonna recover from the lawsuits

and the bad press, so you decided to get out

from under it. It makes perfect sense.

-This... -So now I'm a criminal.

The man who broke into my house is gonna get off scot-free.

We're still looking for him, believe me, we will find him.

We are also working very closely with arson to find out exactly

who torched your restaurant, and believe me, Nicole, we will.

I'll be in touch with you.

Come on, sweetie, let's get out of here.

Come on. It's unbelievable.

I'm at the end, Eric. I don't know what else to do.

Sweetie, don't say that now.

Look, you were right. The police are worthless.

-We need to do this on our own. -You'll help me find him?

Of course I will. I'll track him down online.

You can't. I already tried. He's not listed.

All right, look, you said he lived in Fillmore, right?

-That's what the detective said. -A friend lives out there.

I'll give him a call and see if he can help us track him down.

-Thank you. -Of course, sweetie.

Come on. Let's go.

[suspense music]

[car door opens]

[suspense music]

Hello?

Hello?

[gasps]

[car engine stars]

[moaning]

Hi. Is this Family Welfare Services?

[woman] Yes, it is. How may I help you?

My daughter goes to school with a girl

-who's a foster child. -Who's that?

-Her name's Abigail. -Oh, yes.

Apparently, she was involved in some kind of swimming accident.

[Tricia] So, she was in the pool alone.

Well, she wasn't supposed to be.

And where were you when it happened?

Eric and I were in the kitchen. We--

we thought she was playing in her room.

Basically, she was unsupervised?

No... Not exactly.

We were all in the house together,

and when we heard her cry, we were there in two seconds.

What if you hadn't heard her, Nicole?

But we did.

Listen, I know you've got a lot on your mind,

with the robbery and now the restaurant,

but a child requires constant supervision.

I know, and it will not happen again.

Just so you know, this is exactly why I wanted her to take swimming lessons,

so something like this would never happen.

This is a bigger deal than what you realize, Nicole.

I'm sorry, but I have to report it.

-Those are the rules. -Report it?

-[sighs] -But, Tricia. I'm a good mother.

I have been for over a year and a half. You know that.

Listen, I'll come back tomorrow around four o'clock,

and I'll bring a couple of my department psychologists.

-That work for you? -Absolutely.

They're gonna want to assess the situation.

-Certainly. -I'm glad you understand.

We'll talk tomorrow.

Okay. Thank you.

Mom. What's wrong?

[sighs]

Abby, honey.

Did you tell anyone at school about the whole swimming accident?

I told Hannah.

And Chelsea.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.

Sweetheart, you didn't do anything wrong,

okay? Give me a hug.

[suspense music]

[Eric] They are not gonna take her away.

Abby is the happiest, healthiest she's been in her whole life,

and that's because of you.

I don't think it matters.

-I screwed up big-time. -No, you didn't.

It's gonna be okay, you see.

You know, I was thinking...

Maybe it would be a good thing if you were here tomorrow when Tricia came by.

Absolutely. I can tell them what happened when Abby snuck off to the pool.

No.

More than that.

I want to show them we're a family.

I'd like that.

Me, too.

[soft music]

-[suspense music] -[sirens]

-You look nice, Mom. -Thank you. So do you.

Now Tricia is gonna be here any minute. When she gets here,

we're all gonna sit down and have a little talk, okay?

-What should I say? -Always tell the truth, honey.

-Okay. -[telephone rings]

-Tricia. -Hi, Mrs. Johnson. It's Detective Klein.

Detective Klein.

Yes, I'm outside.

Sorry for showing up unexpected like this,

I was hoping we could come in and have a little look around.

Why? What for?

It's just routine.

There's just some loose ends

we're trying to tie up. That's all.

Could you come back at another time?

Does it have to happen now?

It will only take a few minutes,

and it would really help us out, Nicole.

Fine. Maybe afterwards, you could look for the man who broke into my house

and burned down my restaurant.

[suspense music]

All right, you guys know what you're looking for.

You start on that side of the house. Come with me.

They better leave before Tricia gets here.

Detective.

[detective] Can you explain this?

-It's a rock. -Yes, it's a rock.

It's a decorative rock taken from your front yard.

And it's an exact match to this rock,

which was thrown through the window of your restaurant

to make it look like someone broke in.

-What? -And how about this?

Found this on the side of your house.

-You know what this is? -No, I have no idea.

In days, the guys in our lab will know exactly what it is,

and if this matches the accelerant that was used to set fire to your restaurant,

I will be back here with a warrant,

-and I will arrest you. -[Tricia] Nicole.

-What's going on? -Um...

Tricia... Detective...

This is a big mistake, okay?

Whoever that robber was who got away,

he must have put that there.

He's trying to frame me.

Insurance fraud is a serious offense, and so is arson.

-And who are you? -Family Welfare Services.

Sorry, Nicole.

-Miss Patterson. Please. Wait. -No. Mommy.

Honey, you're gonna have to come with us.

-Come on. -Tricia... Please.

Nicole, don't make this any worse on her, please.

-Abby. -No, Mommy.

I don't like this any more than you do, sweetheart.

All right. Just give her a chance to explain.

-Back off. -No. She's not gonna...

I'm gonna come get you, okay?

-No, Mommy. -Take your hands off her.

-I promise, Abby. -No!

-I promise. -[Tricia] It'll be all right.

-Mommy! No. -Damn it!

[suspense music]

[Nicole] I just wanna talk to her,

to tell her good night.

[woman] I'm sorry, it's not allowed.

Why? Okay, why can't I talk to her? Why is it not allowed?

Those are the rules. I gotta go now.

-Wait... -Good-bye.

[suspense music]

I just wanted to make sure that everything was okay between us.

I felt like we ended a little weird last time.

This is very nice.

Thank you.

So, how's Abby?

They took her.

What? Who?

The county.

Why did they do that?

My restaurant burned down,

and the police think

I'm the one that did it.

Oh, no. I'm so sorry.

You definitely don't deserve that.

Thank you.

[telephone rings]

Excuse me.

-Hey. -[Eric] I got the address.

-Okay. -Davenport lived

at 2815 Stone River Road near Highway 16.

At 2815 Stone River Road, Highway 16.

Okay, do you have time to get out there today?

Yeah, yeah. I should be home about 1:30.

All right, if you're home at 1:30, I'll see you there at 2.

-Alright, I'll see you then. -Okay, bye.

That was Eric. I need to go.

That's all right.

I'll see you later.

Thank you.

Yeah.

[suspense music]

[car engine stars]

[shouts]

[car engine stars]

[sighs]

[suspense music continues]

[suspense music continues]

[dramatic music]

[Jade shouts]

What's up, Jade?

A little surprised to see me, huh?

A little surprised to see Ray-Ray?

What's in the hypo?

It's potassium chloride.

Stops the heart and can't be traced.

Why, you want a hit?

You know what? I'll pass.

What the hell are you doing here? Whose house is this?

Oh, I see.

Let me guess. Little eye for an eye, huh?

She killed your boyfriend, so you're gonna kill hers?

You burned down the restaurant, right?

[shouts]

-[panting] -[groaning]

Stupid bitch.

[panting]

[shouts]

[shouts]

[panting]

[panting]

[panting]

[panting]

He's still alive.

[door opens]

Eric! Oh, my God!

[crying]

Baby.

I-- I need an ambulance.

Um, there-- there's been a fight.

One man may be dead,

and my-- my boyfriend's unconscious.

It's 8215 Mount Casaba Road. Please,

-hurry, please. -Paramedics are on the way.

Baby.

Please. Eric.

[ambulance siren]

[cardiac monitor]

I know I never said it much.

I should have said it more.

But I love you.

I love you so much.

[moans]

-Nicole. -[gasps]

Nurse!

Nurse!

[suspense music]

[detective] Raymond Bulinsky.

He's an acquaintance of William Davenport from Texas.

We think he's been stalking you and Mr. Wallace

for several days, and he's most likely the one

who poisoned your customers

and planted the accelerant, burned down your restaurant.

Nicole...

I owe you an apology.

I was wrong, and it looks like your hunch was right.

And you'll call Tricia and explain all that to her?

Absolutely. As soon as I get back to the station.

Good. Because I want Abigail home before the weekend.

I'll do whatever I can to move them along.

[Eric] Detective.

I gotta tell you, I honestly don't remember stabbing the guy.

That's the concussion talking.

Our crime scene tells a pretty clear story.

You grabbed the knife, you stabbed him.

He hit you in the head several times, he knocked you out,

tried to get away and he didn't make it.

Doctor said Nicole arrived just in time.

She actually saved your life.

Miss Johnson, congratulations.

You got your man.

-Feel better. -Thank you.

[suspense music]

You really don't remember stabbing him, do you?

No, I don't.

I remember coming in,

fighting with the guy,

and nothing after that.

This whole thing...

It just doesn't add up.

[suspense music]

[suspense music continues]

[panting]

[panting]

[gasps]

[Nicole] I thought you said he was your husband.

[Jade] We were engaged.

[suspense music]

[Jade] Did you say you were opening a restaurant soon?

That wouldn't be the Moon River Cafe, would it?

I'm actually allergic to nuts.

-Megan said to. -Megan said what?

To practice swimming when you weren't looking.

-Help! -Is this where he died?

You shot him in the back.

Maybe you should've just given him the money.

I spent a lot of time thinking about what I'd do if I found his killer.

-[Nicole] I think it was Megan. -[moans]

I think she was his girlfriend,

and she's been playing us,

like some sick game of revenge.

How did she know to pose as a swim instructor?

She got a hold of the video camera.

Remember all that stuff on it

about Abigail not wanting to swim?

[moans] I think we should call Detective Klein.

With what evidence? A gum wrapper?

He's got a corpse.

This is an open and shut case to him.

And you think she was there at my house?

I think she's the one that killed that guy.

But I think her target was you.

All right. What do you wanna do about it?

[suspense music]

Oh. Here. Let me help you.

[suspense music continues]

Come on.

[Eric moaning]

Better?

Yeah.

-I'll be back. -Okay.

[sighs]

[suspense music continues]

Don't move.

-That's far enough. -[panting]

And everything that you do right now is being videotaped.

[suspense music]

Go ahead. Kill me like you killed Will.

He was your boyfriend, wasn't he?

You know he wouldn't have hurt you and your daughter.

All he wanted was the money.

And it's not like you don't have enough of it anyway.

Is that what you think?

Well, I got news for you.

That man that you loved so much was about to rape me.

You're a liar.

-He put his hands all over me. -Stop it.

-He put his mouth on me. -I don't believe you.

He said we were gonna have a real fun time.

Shut up!

So you did all of this to me and my little girl for that man.

That's the man that you loved so much.

That's the man that you did all of this for.

You are pathetic.

Call the cops.

[dialing]

[woman] 911. What is your emergency?

Yes, we have a break-in

at 1246 Heartwood Lane.

[panting]

Sir? Hello. Sir?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm-- I'm still here.

A woman has just injected herself with something.

-What? -I don't know what.

-Is she moving? -No. She's-- she's not moving.

-An ambulance is on the way. -Hurry, please.

[suspense music]

[shout]

[gunshot]

[shouts]

[both panting]

-[gunshot] -[panting]

[panting]

-[Eric moaning] -Eric.

[moaning]

-Eric. Eric. -I'm okay, I'm okay.

[panting]

Go. Go.

[panting]

[soft music]

[honking]

[soft music]

-How's your leg? -Oh, it's still a little stiff.

But it's getting better.

Actually, though, the walking helps.

Mom, remember the last time we were here?

-Yeah. -I said I was afraid of the water.

I'm not anymore.

Good.

Hey, so Wednesday's the big day, huh?

Yeah, that's the day that we sign the adoption papers.

I can't wait to tell people my new last name.

You might be changing your last name again.

We both will be.

We will?

-Mm-Hm. -Why?

Because we have something

we need to tell you,

and I think you're gonna like it.

[soft music]
