Shit!

Fuck!

Now what do I do?

Fuck.

God damn it!

Now what do I do?

Hey!

Car trouble?

Sweet ride.

'66?

You know your cars?

You're a car buff too?

Nope.

It ain't your car my brother's interested in.

BETROTHED

Subrip: Pix

God.

Fuck yeah.

What the fuck?

Jesus!

What in tarnation is going on in here?

I don't know, this fucking maniac...

We do not use that kind of language in this house!

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Woah, she's a feisty one Mama.

Yeah, a filthy one you mean.

Yeah!

Goin' somewhere?

Really Adam?

Sorry Ma.

That's the best you can do?

Well I said sorry Ma...

She seemed real nice.

She seemed real nice.

Yeah.

And she had two little nicies out in front

and a diseased box down below.

A party box?

Darn!

What's the matter Ma?

Filthy little whore,

she's bleeding all over the blanket

that my grandma made me!

Nice goin' Nate.

Hey, it's your dirty whore bleedin' all over the place.

No, you stop fighting you two.

Now Nate you go and tell that good-for-nothing

wife of yours to come in here and clean up this mess.

Yeah, and get her ready for me, Ma.

Please Ma?

She is my fiancee.

Fine, since you picked it,

you might as well see it through.

Okay now.

Adam, do you take Kim to be your awful wedded wife?

I sure do, Ma.

Now, slip the ring on its finger.

I now pronounce you man and wife.

Now what are you waiting for Adam?

Kiss the bride!

Careful she don't give you the herpes now.

Don't talk about your brother's wife like that.

Sorry Ma.

Sorry little brother.

That's all right Nate, I knew you was only joshing.

She sure is pretty, ain't she Ma?

In a cheap trailer park sort of way.

Now you best go ahead and consummate the marriage.

If you want it to be legal.

And don't take too long.

Don't worry Ma, he never does.

You both are a couple of juveniles.

Now you hurry up, we ain't got all night.

You and your brother need to get up bright and early.

Ma, why the rush?

What's the rush?

Your daddy's coming in a couple days!

And you promised him a wedding.

Since you couldn't wait,

you gotta get him another one.

Unless you want to disappoint him, again.

No ma'am, you're right, you're right.

Nate and I will go out first thing tomorrow.

Good boy, and this time, don't pick this piece of trash.

A more appropriate wife, sure.

Yeah.

Have fun sweetie!

What's the matter Mama?

I'm fine, I just forgot something.

Sorry about that dear!

You won't be needing this much longer.

Hurry Ma!

How about I make us up

some of my famous chocolate chip pancakes?

Audra!

When did you get home? Last night.

You didn't get kicked outta school did you?

-Thanks a lot. -Well, did you?

No!

Then why are you here?

Because I missed my little sister so much.

Dad, something happened?

Dad's fine, he'll be home Friday.

Midterms are over and I had a few days free,

so I thought I'd come annoy you!

That is such a lovely sound to wake up to!

Sorry Mom.

I was gonna make chocolate chip pancakes,

do you have... No.

You don't even know what I was going to ask.

Sweetie, I have been so busy,

I haven't been to the grocery in like over two weeks.

I've got paper plates and some napkins.

I found pancake mix.

It's probably older than your sister.

How about we go out for breakfast?

And then we can stop at the market

on the way back and pick up...

Everything?

Mom, you promised to take me to Jenny's house at 11,

besides, Audra said she was gonna make pancakes.

With batter that's over a decade old?

No.

I'll just run to the store.

But we have to leave!

By ten, it's only seven.

I'm just gonna run down to the convenience store

and grab a few things, I'll be home in 40 minutes.

Why don't you drive there, maybe you can make it in 20.

Smart ass!

Where do you think she gets that?

Drive safe.

Well I was planning on driving really recklessly,

but since you said that...

For this I went through 59 hours,

the most excruciating labor ever!

-Goodbye Mother. -Wait, wait, wait.

I've got a $20 in here.

Thanks Mom but, no you don't.

How do you like that?

Robbed by my own kid.

Well you do it to Dad all the time.

That's...

Get outta here, go get dressed.

Here we go.

Here we go.

Loretta, hey, hey!

I was literally calling you while you were calling me,

so we're in sync right now, we...

No I was not calling to weasel out of taking our daughter...

But.

Well the Captain is sending me out to Bailey

to pick up this suspect for the homicide.

I don't know, some hick town two hours outside the city.

Because it's my job.

I'm a cop, remember?

Hey hey hey, wait wait wait.

You know nothing's more important to me than Brianna.

And I'm looking forward to it also.

Loretta, that's not fair.

It's, look, it's one night.

I will be back tonight and I'm gonna take

Brianna first thing in the morning.

We Realize that by the end

of our relationship, which is more...

I know that's not what I said,

but look woman, I did not pick this assignment!

All right?

My boss, my Captain, is sending me out there.

So please just...

Really?

Well thank you babe.

No no no no,

and I promise tomorrow morning,

eight AM, I'll be there, swear to God.

And Loretta?

Thank you.

Okay, all right.

But you better move quick, it ain't gonna last.

Okay.

See you in a bit.

Find everything you need?

Actually, no.

I was looking for some creepy virgin to stare at my breasts.

But, wait, there you are!

Well I guess I found everything.

But thanks.

It'll be...

Ten dollars.

Okay.

Okay.

And here's your change.

Yeah Mom, I know!

Yeah, I know exactly the one I want.

Is she the one little brother?

Heck yeah!

Come on!

It's almost 11 Mitch.

She's been gone for over four hours.

I don't know all of her friends,

I called all the ones I do know.

Look, can you come home?

Well can't you catch an earlier flight or something?

I know Sweetie, but I...

Still nothing from Audra?

I'll call you back Mitch.

I love you too.

Something happened, didn't it?

Audra's hurt or... Vicky.

She's fine, okay?

She probably just ran into some friends or something

and she lost track of time.

But I am sure that nothing happened to her.

-Promise? -I promise sweetheart.

I'm gonna take you over to Aunt Sally's okay?

-Why, something is wrong! -Vicky.

I've gotta go look for Audra.

Look I need you to be strong, okay?

Can you do that for Mommy?

Great.

Just go pack up some toys or something.

Toys, Mom? I'm 10.

Okay, I don't know, books?

Some knitting supplies?

Just hurry, okay?

Where you all been?

It's almost lunch time!

Sorry Ma.

Everything go all right?

No problems?

Smooth as cake Mama.

Well...

Are you two gonna stand there grinning like morons,

or you gonna introduce me to my new daughter-in-law?

Ain't she purdy Ma?

She sure is Honey!

So I done do good this time, Mama?

You done do very good Honey.

And she gonna make pretty babies,

not like that other one.

Now Ma, you ain't bein' fair to Em, she's trying.

I think you got yourself a dud.

I suppose Ma.

Now you two better get this one in,

before the stuff wears off!

It's your wife.

I'm sorry lady, but I told you,

I wasn't here this morning.

Susie opened, but...

She went home sick, yeah, I know.

Can you call her?

She doesn't have a phone.

Well maybe you can tell me where she lives

and I can just go ask her myself.

I'm sorry, I don't know where she lives.

Only the boss has that info.

He's outta town.

Where?

Can you reach him?

Please, my daughter... Look, lady!

I'll try, okay?

I'll see if I can get ahold of Susie's friends

or something, all right?

I'd appreciate that.

But I can tell you that nothing happened!

She would've said if something did.

Well, you know,

maybe she saw something that didn't seem

important at the time, or someone hanging around.

Maybe they came in right before

or right after Audra, so...

I doubt it, but...

Can't hurt to ask, right?

I really appreciate your help.

I sure hope you find your daughter.

Where the hell am I?

Thank God.

What the fuck?

What the fuck?

Thank God.

Fuck!

Damn it!

I do not allow profanity in this house.

Then fucking throw me out!

You got spunk don't you?

And you're a pretty little thing, I'll grant you that.

But I've dealt with tougher, and trust me missy,

I always win.

Now, you're new,

so I will overlook this transgression.

But don't push me Audra, I warn you.

Are you insane?

Adam has chosen you to be his wife.

And you're going to be a faithful,

subservient, obedient,

obliging wife.

Now that is a fact!

You are going to be Adam's wife!

Now, how many fingers and toes you wanna do it with,

well that is up to you!

Now do I make myself perfectly clear?

Yes ma'am.

Enough of this nonsense.

We can have our girl talk later.

Now go take a hot shower.

Towels are in the bathroom,

and more appropriate clothes are in the closet.

Well go on!

Fuck!

Damn it!

So it'll take a few minutes to complete

the transfer papers.

In the meantime, have a seat,

and I'll be with you in a moment.

-Thank you. -No problem.

Look lady.

I know, I have to wait 48 hours.

She could be dead by then.

She is only 19.

She's an adult.

There are no signs or reason to believe

that there's been any foul play.

No signs?

She's been gone for over 10 hours.

Is everything okay?

-Yeah. -No!

No, everything is not okay!

My daughter is missing and no one

around here seems to give a damn!

Lady, I told you already.

Please.

Why won't you help me?

Because I can't.

I don't write the rules.

Please help me.

Look ma'am, I'm not from around here, so I can't.

Well, okay.

Yeah, you're not from around here,

and he has to wait 48 hours.

So you guys are all excused, you know?

You get to go on with your lives.

Look ma'am, I really would like to help you,

but it's not my jurisdiction.

Really?

Because it seems to me if you wanted

to help me that you would.

Now that's not fair.

He says to the lady with the missing kid.

Do you have kids?

I have a daughter.

10 hours.

Imagine that.

If I were to poke around,

I would be stepping on some toes.

Can't bother me if I don't know about it.

Hey Detective, I didn't see you standing there.

Yeah, apparently not.

Look, I know what you're up to.

And I'm gonna let you two handle this.

I'm gonna leave and I'm gonna go out on my fishing trip.

And I'm gonna have a nice day.

Good luck ma'am.

Detective, you need us, you know where to find us.

Okay.

And let Jim know I will be back to get him.

Don't worry, he's not going anywhere.

Okay ma'am.

Please, tell me what happened.

Ginnie?

Now, don't you feel all better?

I guess.

Nothing clears my head like a nice hot shower.

Makes me feel so good and fresh all over.

And you know what they say,

cleanliness is next to godliness.

Rule number two,

everything must be clean.

The home, the body, and your thoughts, understand?

Yes ma'am.

Do you have a hair dryer?

There wasn't one in the bathroom.

Well that's because my boys prefer

their wives not to look like cheap whores.

Now, a simple braid or bun will do.

Now just go on!

You indecent whore!

What, I was only...

Flaunting your flesh?

Trying to tempt my boys? No!

With your wicked ways?

They aren't even here!

Don't you talk back to me, you lying jezebel!

Revelations 21:8,

"But as for the cowardly, the faithless,

"the sexually immoral and all the liars,

"their portion will be the lake that burns

"with fire and sulphur, which is the second death!"

What does that even mean?

Come here child.

Come here child, I'll tell you.

Come here child, I said come here!

Feel what happens when you don't obey my rules!

You indecent whore!

You lying jezebel!

How long have you been here?

Does anyone ever come out here?

Delivery trucks, mailman?

What about family or neighbors?

If you're thinking of escaping,

do yourself a favor and forget about it.

There's only one way outta here.

Even then, Ginnie will find us,

and she will bury us in the family plot.

Because even in death, there ain't no way outta here.

I can't accept that.

I won't.

Well you best, because that's the way it is.

Sooner you realize it,

the fewer beatings you'll be getting.

The best thing you can do right now is just accept this.

Forget about your other life.

Now.

Don't you two seem cozy?

Em was just telling...

What?

What have you been telling Audra?

My little mouse?

My little barren mouse, what lies have you been telling her?

Nothing like that.

Just girl talk.

You know, about the wedding.

Really?

Yeah, I mean,

I'd always dreamed I'd wear my mother's wedding dress.

Would you like to wear mine?

Probably not, I guess.

But I would love you to.

I understand it wouldn't be the same as your mother's,

but it would mean a lot to me.

I'd be honored.

Well let's go try it on!

We're gonna have to take it in a little.

Okay, we're gonna have to take it in a lot,

but you're gonna look so pretty!

Finish the dinner mouse, I'll deal with you later!

All right Tina, what you got?

You tell me.

Sheriff down there is still waiting

for you to pick up our perp.

I know, that's right.

Are you listening to me?

Are you listening to me?

Smells like shit and pancakes.

Are you talking about me?

Funny, no.

Look, I'm in the middle of this...

Helping that lady you met?

So you know about that?

You'd be surprised how easy it is

to charm a lonely desk sergeant.

Yeah, I know you.

You can charm the pants off any man

and the dress off any woman?

Except you, apparently.

You think something really happened to this girl?

Yeah. I do.

Thank you dear Lord for bringing

Adam and Audra together.

We are both humbled and appreciative.

In the name of Jesus, we pray, amen.

Amen.

That's enough dear.

We don't want you getting fat, now do we?

Yeah Em, it's hard enough to mount you as it is.

That's terrible mean!

Did we hurt its feelings?

Did we hurt mouse's feelings?

See Nate, that's what you married,

a timid, barren little mouse.

Poor little thing.

Why don't you leave her alone?

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

Didn't mean to what?

To embarrass and disrespect me in front of my boys?

I'm sorry, I was...

And it's something that you will never do again, will you?

No ma'am.

Well you best see that you don't.

Yes ma'am.

My.

You two bonded today, didn't you little mouse?

I saw them in the kitchen today.

They were just chatting away,

like they were old friends or something.

God damn it Em,

what did I tell you about flapping your lips?

I'm sorry Nate, we were just talking.

Really Em?

Backtalk?

Are you trying to make me mad?

I'm sorry Nate, really.

I didn't mean to.

That's enough!

We will deal with this unpleasantness later.

Now let's not spoil

Audra's first dinner with us!

Yeah, I just wish that Pa was here,

so that he could celebrate with us.

He's got him a job, puts him out on the road.

Now Honey we don't want to

bore Audra with all those details.

Women don't really have a head for business, do we?

All you really need to know is Bud is a good man,

and he works hard to provide for his family.

Yeah, just like I'm gonna do for you Audra.

Now have you given any thought

to what kind of wedding cake you want?

Now I know it's not traditional,

but I was just thinking like a...

Angel food cake?

I'm sorry Mama, I didn't mean to interrupt you.

I was just thinking that, I was really hoping...

Okay sweetie, you're excited.

It's okay.

But you don't do that again, hear me?

Yes ma'am, cross my heart.

Now, you were saying?

Well I was thinking, if it's okay,

if we could have an angel food cake

on account of Audra's my angel.

Isn't that the sweetest thing you ever heard?

So can I?

No. You'll get what she makes.

Ma!

Don't listen to him,

that's your brother's sense of humor.

'Course you can have an angel food cake Darling.

Now I'm gonna need you two boys

to run into town to pick up some things.

Like what?

Your brains, little brother.

You must've left them at the whore house.

Hardy har har, so funny I almost forgot to laugh.

You know I'd never go to one of them places, right Ma?

I know, you're a good boy.

Jesus man, you nearly gave me a heart attack!

I'm sorry I startled you.

I just wanna talk to you for a minute.

Look, I'm flattered and all man,

but I'm not into dudes.

Yeah, and that not into dudes thing,

it extends to cops too.

Now, if you don't mind...

I'm not into that deliverance thing you got up here.

I just have a couple questions.

Look, I would love to help you out,

but I'm kinda busy right now.

Yeah, I can see that.

I can see that.

Well why don't you help a girl?

Her life's at stake.

Look, like I told that lady earlier,

I wasn't working this morning.

But your coworker seems to think so, because...

Because I was on the schedule,

but then I switched with Susie.

Susie?

No, I don't think so, no Susie works there.

The lady must've misheard me.

Why the third degree?

Why you lying?

I'm not lying.

Carla, get me a to-go box!

Hey, Ryan.

What happened this morning?

You and her was alone for the first time,

you saw her, you wanted her.

You came on to her, she turned you down in your face!

It wasn't like that.

Okay, then talk to me, tell me, what was it like?

What happened?

Told you, I never saw the chick.

Right, right.

You know I'm gonna find out, right?

So just tell me right now.

I can't tell you what I don't know.

You're lying.

Prove it.

Arrogant little prick.

Jesus Christ, Nate.

Lord, forgive me!

Damn it Nate, see what that little mouse made me do?

Sorry Mama, but Emma's trying.

How, by getting on my fucking nerves?

She can't clean, she can't cook,

she's as ugly as sin, eats like a horse,

and she still ain't giving you no babies.

You're right Ma.

You're too good hearted Nate,

always trying to see the best in people,

even when it ain't there.

I suppose.

Then you know what you have to do.

Damn that clumsy oaf!

You're gonna get it now, Em!

-Audra. -You'll be okay Em.

No, I won't.

Would you excuse us?

Nate and I just need to have a little chat with Emily.

Adam honey, it's a beautiful night.

Why don't you take Audra for a walk?

And maybe even go on the swing for a bit?

-Sure thing Mama! -Yeah!

Come on Audra, have you see the desert at night?

It's amazing, you can see all the stars,

and all the, what you call 'em?

The consternations!

Constellations.

Pretty and smart.

How'd I get so gosh-darn lucky?

Come on!

Go on, go, go on!

You've been a very bad girl!

I know it ain't much, but it's home.

And you'll come to love it here just as much as I do.

Audra, you're gonna be so happy here.

I just know it!

I mean, we're gonna live our lives and build a family,

and love each other until the day we die.

Don't worry none, that's just a coyote.

Is that all?

You hear them all the time,

but they hardly ever come this far out.

That's comforting.

Come on it'll be a little while before Ma and Nate finish.

Finish what?

Correcting Em.

Sometimes she forgets her place

and Ma and Nate are kind enough to remind her.

Em's really lucky,

not every husband is as understanding as Nate is.

Get up, get up!

Please, Nate, please!

I'll try harder, I promise!

Where have I heard that one before?

-Ma's right. -Please!

While you're down there,

I'll give you another chance to give me a baby.

So.

Pretty remote place you have here.

Yeah, I guess.

You don't have to worry about anyone creeping up on you.

Nope.

So, how's your, how far's your nearest neighbor?

Our neighbor now?

I don't know, suppose that would be cousin Ryan,

he's over down past the highway.

So no one else around?

No, we're pretty far out.

Yeah, I wouldn't even say Ryan lives around here,

he's over close to the town.

How far is that?

Town?

I don't know, highway's about 100 miles,

diner's another 30, so 150, 160 miles.

Why?

I've just always loved geography.

I knew you was smart.

And purdy.

Audra, have I told you how happy I am that you're here?

Well I am.

Wonder what's taking them so long.

Now Audra!

You know better than to come between a man and his wife!

Sometime's a man's gotta do what he thinks is right,

ain't no one else's business, understand me?

Good, now, I don't mean to come off gruff or nothing,

but sometimes a man's gotta put his foot down, got it?

Good.

Now I'm sure they'll be done before long.

And then we can have some dessert.

Wonder what we're having.

We, Em and me, made apple pie.

My favorite.

That's enough Nate.

You're wasting your time.

She ain't never gonna change.

No, I will change!

I promise I'll try harder!

I'll do better, you'll see, Ginnie please!

You know what I see?

A dumb, timid little mouse,

who's outlived any usefulness

it may have had!

Hey Ma!

Guess what!

Audra likes horror movies and pizza!

Can you believe it?

I mean, two of my most favoritest things in the world,

and she loves them both!

What are the odds?

Almost like it was meant to be?

Is everything okay?

This.

Well, silly me, I was cleaning out the fridge,

and I dropped a couple jars of strawberry jam.

And Nate was kind enough to clean it up.

Where's Em?

Maybe we could...

I think it's time for you to call it a night.

But...

We got things to do tomorrow.

But...

You gonna give me a problem missy?

No ma'am.

Good night.

I really had a lot of fun tonight Audra.

You complete me.

Brother, I should put on my galoshes.

Hush!

I love you Audra.

And I swear I will spend the rest of my days

trying to make you happy.

That is so sweet, I'm gonna cry!

Sleep well, my angel.

Come on.

Adam honey, I can't tell you how happy I am for you.

Yeah little brother, Audra's real special,

you done good.

Thanks, I'm sorry things with Em didn't work out.

Speaking of the mouse,

give your brother a hand cleaning up the kitchen.

First thing tomorrow you take the mouse

on over to Ryan's and have him

dispose of her in a manner more deserving

of her status in life, understand?

She means have him feed her to Uncle Lester's pigs!

You think?

Now you boys go on and clean up.

Criminal Minds is on and it's a new episode!

We got it Ma, enjoy your show.

Please God!

Please, I want my mom!

Why'd you fuckin' make me do this Em?

Do you get some type of perverse pleasure

making me do these things?

Ungrateful bitch!

Nate. Nate?

Nate!

Nate, what's going on?

Nate!

Nate, why are you doing this?

Sorry hon, couldn't hear ya.

Nate, please!

Please!

No, no!

Now Em,

Ma and I made our positions perfectly clear earlier.

Please, Nate.

No!

No, no!

Wait!

Thank you Ginnie.

Ginnie, I promise I'll try harder.

I'll be so good.

Please.

I'll be so much better, I'll be so good, please.

Don't do this.

Thank you Ginnie,

Ginnie!

Ginnie!

Trying to damage my mother's ring.

Sorry Ma.

Well try to be more thoughtful from now on, hear me?

Yes ma'am.

Ginnie, please!

Ginnie!

See what you made me do?

What?

Where the hell were you?

Fell asleep, sorry.

You lazy ass.

I said I was sorry Nate.

Listen, I'll clean up in there,

you just help me put her in the bags, deal?

Deal.

Damn Nate, you made a friggin mess in there!

And you said you'd clean it up,

now get your ass in there.

Asshole.

Em.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Please God.

Please.

Just get me out of here.

I just want my mom.

Our father, who are in Heaven,

hallowed in thy name,

thy kingdom come, thy will be done,

on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Good morning!

Morning.

Where is everybody?

Nate and Adam went to run some errands.

What about Em?

Just you and me today.

Good, give us time to work on my wedding dress.

Now where are my manners?

I haven't even offered you any coffee.

I'll get it.

Want a warm up?

Well I would, thank you.

Good.

Sometimes it takes me more than one cup to get going.

I'm on my fourth and I'm not fully with it,

but then again, the boys say I never am.

Speaking of boys,

how long do I have you to myself?

Well, at least a few hours,

I don't expect them 'til lunch or maybe even after that.

Dear, did you spill coffee on yourself?

No.

On you!

Boy, mom wasn't kidding when she said I'd hate my in-laws.

Bitch!

Damn it!

Fuck.

Come on, come on where are they?

More coffee?

Hey Carla,

this the guy been asking about Ryan?

Yeah.

You know him?

Used to be friends.

'Till he screwed me outta $20 and took my girl.

Wait wait wait,

we talking about the same Ryan Cooper,

tall geeky-looking kid?

Yeah man, that's the blonde-headed fuck.

Don't suppose you know where he lives?

Sure do.

You mind taking me to him?

Hell, for 20 bucks I'll show you.

Jake, you should wanna help!

Well Carla, that would cost him $40.

Nah, it's okay, it's okay.

Can't knock a man's hustle.

20 dollars.

I can do that.

Whatever you say, partner.

All right, let's go.

Think.

Think Audra, think!

Where would a lunatic hide her keys?

Yo Tina, what you got?

More questions than answers.

Anything on Ryan Cooper?

No, but I got a match on his prints,

came back to a Doug Monroe, kidnapped 14 years ago.

Okay, so...

He bonded with his captors and what?

Helping them kidnap other kids?

Maybe. Got another missing person.

Stripper named Kim Cole,

seems a friend of hers died out on 70,

drove out to pay her respects,

stopped to ask for directions.

Let me guess where.

Two stoners saw a missing person's flier,

said they remember seeing her at a convenience store.

Are they sure?

As they put they've been nutting

to her ever since, man.

You're probably nutting to her too?

Hey Tina...

To who, who'd he call?

Tina!

You don't get service again

'til you're closer to town, man.

And how far is that?

40 or so miles, past Ryan's place.

Who's there?

I have a really big knife!

I can hear you breathing.

Hello?

My God!

Are you okay?

Please don't.

Don't what?

-Hurt me. -I won't, I promise.

I'm here to help.

You're Adam's new wife, aren't you?

My name's Audra.

And I'm not one of them, I promise.

They kidnapped me and were gonna force me to marry Adam.

Were?

Well there's sort of been a change of plans.

Nate, Bud and Adam are all out,

and Ginnie's, she's sort of tied up,

so it's now or never.

You do want to go, don't you?

Audra, even if we could get out of here,

I've been locked in this attic for years.

I mean, I don't remember anything before Bud and Ginnie.

I don't have anywhere to go, any family, any friends.

I'll be your friend.

You can stay with my family until we find your family.

Okay?

The key's over there.

Right where you can see them.

Ginnie calls it motivation.

Keeping your eye on the prize.

I call it sadistic.

Can I ask you something?

Yeah.

You said that they never let you down from here, right?

No, Ma washes me up here.

And once a day one of the boys will bring the bucket.

The bucket?

So, what if you have to go more than once a day?

Sometimes they bring it again.

Other times they won't bring it for a day or two

to see if I can hold it.

Jesus these people are sick.

If I mess the floor, they don't feed me for a couple days.

And the boys find this funny?

Then why...

Did they kidnap me?

Just to lock me in an attic and beat me?

Buyer's remorse.

Promise you'll help me if I tell you.

-Ethan, what? -Promise!

I promise.

I swear to God, I will get you out of here.

Now what?

Tell me.

What?

When I was six,

Bud told me I could be anything I wanted to be.

I told them I wanted to be a princess.

That's it?

You're gay?

Ginnie says it's an abomination before the Lord.

Jesus.

Just get you out of here, okay?

I think they have some clothes over there.

Okay.

If I could get this open.

-The key. -Come on.

Get you some clothes.

Careful.

We gotta get outta here.

Let's get some water, blankets,

we're gonna walk!

No, I need food.

I need food.

Here.

Need a fork?

Get this homosexual abomination out of my house!

You've gotta be kidding me!

I love you like my very own!

Sad thing is,

I think she meant it.

I don't think she had any kids of her own.

Haven't you ever noticed?

Adam doesn't look like the rest.

I thought he just had a different father.

No.

I don't think Nate's hers either.

Why?

What?

Bud!

He's home early.

God.

What do we do?

So this is it?

It's a real piece of shit.

All right, so look,

I'm gonna go inside here and check it out,

so you just...

Man, put that down before you put your eye out.

Get outta the fuckin' car.

Okay, all right.

Really, you gonna pull a gun out on me,

when you know I got a gun?

You're either stupid as hell, or you just got balls,

either way you go...

Hey, what the fuck is the matter with you?

You gonna shoot my car, you shot my fucking car?

What's the matter with you?

You know what?

Ryan!

You're gonna stay right here.

Ryan!

The pig's here man!

Shut up.

Ryan!

Ryan, the pig's comin' man!

Ginnie, guess who's done early!

Ginnie!

Hey Dad!

Ethan, you wanna go for a ride?

-Yeah! -Let's go.

Mr. Cooper?

Cooper, Detective Gordon.

Mr. Cooper.

Mr. Cooper?

It smells like death.

Detective Gordon here.

Just have a few questions I wanna ask you.

Mr. Cooper!

Detective Gordon.

Detective Gordon.

Coming in.

Coming in.

Mr. Cooper.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey man.

Hey.

Detective Gordon.

That's actually a pretty good shot,

could've been more centered, but that's good.

That's good.

We're never going to make it out of here.

Ethan, you have to calm down!

No!

They're going to find us,

they're going to hunt us down

and they're going to make us go back there!

God, they're behind us, aren't they?

No.

Shit.

What then?

Remember when I said I wasn't sure

if we had enough gas to make it?

Well we don't!

Fuck.

Great.

What do we do now?

I don't know, but we better do it quick!

God.

I've got an idea.

-Run? -Let's go!

Just run Ethan, go!

I'm through messing with you Jake, all right?

Okay, tell me what's going on,

where's the girl?

I fucking told you man, I don't know!

All right?

You don't know?

You don't know?

Why are you protecting Ryan?

Fuck you, pig.

Fuck me?

You think you're a tough guy?

Think you're a tough guy, you a tough guy?

How 'bout this, tough guy,

if you don't tell me what I wanna know,

I'm gonna leave your ass here.

You wouldn't.

Yeah, I would.

With your new roommate there, Ryan.

Then what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna open up that door,

you'll get a few new roommates.

Some coyotes.

Some bears.

Snakes?

Tell me what I wanna know.

I don't know, that might be kinda cool to see.

Don't be an idiot.

You don't want to go to jail for these people.

Hey man, it's a lot better than what Bud...

Okay, okay, all right, Jay, talk to me.

All right, who's Bud?

Did he kidnap Audra?

Come on, talk to me.

No, fuck you man.

Okay, look Jake, all right?

I'm begging you, you can help me save this girl's life.

Now if you're worried about this Bud,

I can protect you, I promise, but you have to,

no no no no no,

you have to help me save Audra.

Fuck you, pig.

Okay Jake, okay.

Suit yourself.

All right?

Look, you got some lunch here for you.

You got some water, you got a little sausage and pepperoni.

A little onion, and look you got extra mold.

You got a little penicillin on the side, all right?

Bon apetit there Jake.

Jake, a few of your roommates are already here.

Yeah, Jake's inside.

I'm really sorry for what you had to do Nate.

I appreciate that little brother.

Losing a wife is never easy.

'Specially when she's gonna get fed to the pigs.

You got a real sick sense of humor there Adam.

But still, I appreciate the sentiment.

Em wasn't much, she's kinda plain, not too smart.

Yeah, and never gave you no babies.

Third wife in a row,

starting to think it ain't them.

Hey Nate, don't say that, come on!

Ma says the women we been pickin' out

was all whores before we met 'em.

That's why none of them gave us no babies.

They'd used up all their lady parts before

and they was no good no more.

Yeah, you're right.

Just gotta choose better next time.

Like you, that Audra, she's really something.

Ain't she?

Hey!

Hey, I got me an idea!

Well I'll be damned, there's a first time for everything.

You wanna hear it or not?

Do I have a choice?

Well I was thinkin' we could go to town tomorrow,

before Daddy gets home, choose you out a new wife!

Have us a double wedding!

I don't know, ain't it a little soon?

Come on Nate!

Besides, Ma would get a kick out of it.

That she would.

So what do you say?

I don't know.

Hey, ain't that Pa's truck?

Either that or he's picked himself

one strange spot to take a nap.

You think?

Right, you was being sarcastic.

And you're being an idiot, now move.

Nate, no!

I am gonna gut you and eat your insides for dinner!

Fucking slut!

Is he, you know, dead?

Is he, you know, dead?

He is now.

Come on!

Help me!

Please don't leave me here like this!

Little brother.

Audra sweetie?

Bitch!

Adam, I wanna break up!

Hello?

Be right with you darlin'!

Now what can I do for, my lord!

What happened to you two?

These people.

They tried to...

It's okay baby, you're safe now, okay?

You're safe, Lester!

What the hell you yellin' about?

The hell happened to you two?

I know you.

You're that girl that was missin'.

Audra West.

I don't know what happened, but you're safe now baby.

Both of you, okay?

Why don't you go call the sheriff

while I get Audra cleaned up, okay?

Come on hun I've got some overalls

in the back you can change in to.

They ain't pretty, but at least they ain't covered in blood.

Let's get you cleaned up too Ethan.

How do you know my name?

I know it's been a while,

don't tell me you forgot your old Uncle Lester!

I am truly hurt boy!

Hurt!

Speakin' of hurt,

you two are in for a whole heapin' of it!

What kind of monster does that to his own family?

And as for you,

what do you think we should do

with such a pretty little thing?

Run Audra, run!

Grandma's home.

You treacherous little pervert!

Betray your own family!

Quit whining.

Lester, help me baby!

Quit whining!

Stop it!

Where's the whore?

She went that way.

And you let her go?

Gwen's bleedin'!

Jesus, she bleeds every month, it's no big deal!

Mama!

If she gets away, I swear to God Lester.

She won't Mama.

She best not!

Come out and play little girl!

I know you're in here.

Fucker!

Let me out!

Let me outta here or I swear to God I'll skin you alive!

Not so fast little missy!

Help!

Help me!

Ethan, Ethan's inside!

You okay?

I think so.

All right, hold on, it's gonna be okay.

Tina, yeah, I got the girl.

They're getting away!

Yeah yeah yeah.

Okay.

Gold sports car, you got a license plate?

No license plate Tina.

On highway 94.

All right.

Who's Ethan?

Did you catch them?

Hey...

Not yet.

You said you guys would catch them.

It's been almost two weeks.

I know, and I promise we'll get to them,

we just need some more time.

Then why are you here?

-Ethan. -What?

If you haven't caught them, then that means...

It doesn't mean anything.

Detective Gordon.

I'm sorry Audra, look Ethan,

you're gonna be released in three days

and we still don't know who you are

or where you come from.

Then he can stay with us until you do.

Audra honey, I'm sorry, but it's not that simple.

Who is that?

That's Angela Simmons from Child Protective Services.

But Ethan doesn't need protecting any more.

Audra, Ethan is a minor,

and that makes him a ward of the state.

So?

They're gonna put him in a group home or something?

It's the law.

It's stupid and it's not fair.

Hey it's gotta be better than living

with Bud and Ginnie, right?

Rob.

Isn't there anything you can do?

Ethan, how old are you?

I told you, I don't know.

Okay, listen, listen.

If you're under 18,

that woman can take you away,

there's not a damn thing I can do about it.

If you're under 18, you understand what I'm saying?

So how old are you?

18, I'm 18!

Okay, okay.

Hi Mrs. Simmons I just found out that Ethan

is actually 18 after all, so sorry to waste your time,

but thank you for coming.

If he's a day over 16, I'm a size double zero.

Come on kid, let's go.

Wait wait wait, Ang, please.

Have a heart, okay?

A heart?

Three supervisors and a stack of paperwork taller than him.

Come on Rob, you know I can't do this.

Please help him, hasn't he suffered enough?

He got a place to go?

With us.

As long as he wants to.

He's gonna need a lot of therapy.

I know, and we'll get it for him, I promise.

I'd have to inspect your house,

and there'd be follow up visits.

You would be welcome any time you want.

Are you sure about this, it's gonna be a lot of work.

We're sure.

Yeah, we are, we're sure.

Then 18 he is.

What does that mean?

It means you're gonna go home with them.

Really?

Really.

Come on Mrs. Simmons, I will walk you out.

So has Ethan's appetite improved,

is he eating better?

I mean, he does, but sometimes it's he's afraid...

Hi Mrs. Simmons!

Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.

That's okay Audra, we're just finishing up.

Is Ethan in his room?

He's been there all day.

You mind setting the table?

Yes.

Smart ass!

You're staying for dinner, right?

Yes, and thank you for asking me.

And if you could,

would you just keep an eye on the cookies,

I've got to take a quick shower and change.

Set the table, take the cookies out of the oven,

who am I, Cinderella?

My God, thank you so much for your help.

Any time Mom.

When are Dad and Vicky getting back?

About half an hour,

but Detective Gordon isn't here 'til five, so...

Mom, it's 4:30.

Shit!

You know what, Angela and I just started talking,

and I guess I just got... It's all right Mom,

go ahead. Thank you!

My God, okay!

I know, you only did what you thought was right.

Ethan?

Yeah, that's Mrs. Simmons.

Yeah, she is pretty, ain't she?

Who are you talking to?

My Pa.

He come back for me.

Bud?

In the flesh!

I want to Pa!

I've waited a long time to hear you say those words, son.

Make me proud!

No, no Ethan, no!

Make me proud son!

Ethan?

My God, Ethan, what happened?

Ethan, whose blood is that?

Ethan, what the hell is going on?

It's my son's initiation day.

Make me proud.

Don't worry, Cinderella's got it!

Anything else you want me to do?

Feed the horses, tend to the crops?

Sorry dear.

I'd never forgive myself if I let your cookies burn!

Kids these days, no matter what you do,

it's the wrong thing!

So dear, what are you gonna do now?

Ethan, what are you...

He knows who his family is.

Family?

You beat him, tortured him,

locked him in an attic!

And you left him for dead!

And you run off with my baby lying there bleeding!

No I didn't, Ethan, tell her!

His life-force draining from him!

From his own body while you just run off

and saved your own skin!

Ethan, you can't want to go back with them.

They come back for me.

You left me, but they come back.

No, you know...

I think we all know, don't we?

Ethan.

What are you doing?

Ethan.

Ethan, she must pay!

She tried to kill your Ma!

Ethan, you know!

I know you left me, they...

Come back for you?

You think they love you, care for you?

They don't even know what love is.

Ethan, she must pay for what she done to our family!

Damn it boy, do it!

Run Audra!

Told ya she'd just break your Ma's heart again.

Cinderella!

Cinderella!

Die bitch!

Ginnie!

Ginnie!

You're gonna pay for this, bitch.

Now, I don't see no reason to rush this.

Why don't we just skip the wedding,

we're gonna go straight for the honeymoon.

Straight for they honeymoon.

Hey asshole.

What?

It's time to put you down.

You okay?

Well, we just gonna sit here?

What do you wanna do, Ma?

Take me to freakin' Disneyland, that's what.

That little bitch killed your brother and sister.

She took my babies, Lester.

She took your Gwen, Ethan,

Adam, Nate.

Damn it Lester,

she nearly wiped out our whole family!

You want I should follow 'em and kill her?

Yes, Lester, that's why I come all this way,

to kill a whore.

You know sometimes you're just

as stupid as your brother was!

An eye for an eye.

She took from us, she needs to give it back.

That little sister of hers is near birthin' age too.

I like the way you think Mama.

So what do you think?

Time to move on, start a new family some place else?

Anywhere but here.

Dang, I sure hate the desert.

Then grab the little bitches

and let's go some place nice.

Yes ma'am.
