-You killed him!

-Oh, child.

What happened to your husband was tragic...

He drank himself to death.

You know that.

I don't know how you did it ... but you did it, Helen.

You made it look like a heart attack!

That is absurd, sweetheart.

I would never hurt anyone.

You're gonna have a baby soon.

I can give you a fresh start, away from the city

Miss Henderson, I'm sorry but I'm afraid

What?

That can't be true.

She lost control of her car and suffered fatal injuries

Before she died in the ambulance,

Stop saying those things!

No! This is all a mistake!

Woman's voice: Follow-up notes for Helen Henderson.

File number thirty-six, seven hundred and seventy-seven.

Dr. Daniel Chalton observedthat, even before the incident,

his patient was delusional,

prone to codependency and obsession with others.

She was accused of murder, but no evidence was found.

After the investigation,

Miss Henderson's assault case was handed off

to the Philadelphia medical board

and she was committed for nine months.

She became a model patient.

She was released one month ago,

and this will be my first mandatory visit.

I will observe Miss Henderson and make my evaluation.

Logging off, January twelfth, three-oh-one p.m.

What a lovely country home.

I put a mortgage on that place last year,

just before my troubles, and...

I almost have it paid off free and clear.

Really?

The peace and quiet, and it has a beautiful home

that I have been redoing.

Well, of course, money is no object and ...

Who knows how many years this old body has left?

Well, you're not exactly over the hill.

You're extremely healthy and, uh, very strong for your age.

Oh, well, thank you.

Um, um, coffee, tea?

Uh, no thank you. I, I don't do caffeine.

Ah.

(exhale)

You seem wary, Grace.

Is, uh, something about me troubling you?

Maybe something that reminds you of your mother?

I don't think it's appropriate to talk about my family

in this interview, Helen.

I saw you doing the same thing with Dr. Chalton

in the videos.

You seem to be quite the expert in...

how shall I say it?

...changing the perspective.

I am not an expert in anything.

I'm just an ordinary woman trying to start my life over.

Grace... I am not proud of what I did.

Attacking a police officer?

I can hardly believe that it was me.

But I'm not one to make excuses.

I just wanna make it right.

Well, that's a very healthy attitude to have.

Beautiful new day out there and life is worth living

and there are so many things that I wanna do.

Mm-hm.

I think a support group with people your own age

would be very good for you.

Helen Henderson wasn't a textbook case.

She was uniquely afflicted, hot and cold,

tortured by her own actions, also very intelligent.

I thought she might be a problem for my colleague,

Grace Henry, and, um, now Grace is, uh, gone.

Do you think Helen had something to do with

Miss Henry's disappearance?

I'm not sure, but police are looking into it now,

so hopefully they find something.

Do you know where Helen might have gone?

Well, um, she would talk to her doctors a lot about

buying property, um, near the Allegheny Forest,

near Bradford, about a six-hour drive.

Um, but there's just so much woods.

Um, unless you knew exactly what you were looking for,

you could get lost forever.

I got it.

Thanks for your time.

Wait, Kyle. We need to think this through.

If Helen had something to do with Grace Henry's

disappearance...

Then she's dangerous, just like Angela said,

and Sarah's with her.

I have an idea!

We can do a real estate search on deals in the area.

Maybe we can find an exact address.

I have to get on the road, OK?

You do that here and you call me.

Kyle, I know you feel responsible but be careful.

I'm just getting a really bad feeling about this.

Listen, we will find her, OK?

I know we will, and I'm gonna keep her safe.

All right?

You haven't eaten a thing.

Is everything OK?

Helen, please.

Nobody deserves to be a victim, nobody.

My dear Sarah, it made me so sad to do what I did,

when I saw how heartbroken you were, but I had to show you.

You had to learn.

And now I've shown you the truth about Kyle.

No, Kyle was never a monster.

He deserved a second chance, and I gave it to him.

I wanted it for us, Helen.

I still do.

He betrayed you!

And I forgave him for it!

That's what makes us better than monsters, Helen,

forgiving, moving on, not turning our backs

when we realize the people we love are only human!

Oh, listen to yourself.

You sound like an abused wife rationalizing.

I love him, Helen!

Please, just, just take me home.

I, I won't tell anybody about you or this place.

I'll even, I'll come back and see you, OK?
