I'm Justin.

[chuckles]

Look at her.

She is cute.

I'm Candace,

if you didn't know already.

Are you ready to come

have fun with us tonight?

Are you?

Whoop, sorry.

Guess I owe you a dance

at Jamie's party then.

Uh...yeah.

Are we not taking your car?

We're all going

to the same place.

I might as well be

the responsible one and drive.

My bad!

This is Tyler.

He's gonna be our driver tonight

because friends

don't let friends drive..

What was it?

The word you're looking for

is exceptionally inebriated.

- Let's get going.

- No! No, it's drunk!

'Friends don't let friends

drive drunk.'

You coming?

Yeah, sounds fun.

[indistinct chatter]

It's nice to meet you.

Oh oh oh oh

Oh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh-oh-oh

I've been searching

for so long

Baby baby

And I've been looking so far

Praying for revelation

Baby baby

Gotta know who you are

I'm captive

in your crazy atmosphere

[laughing]

I can't take it no more

Oh, that's my favorite.

That is my favorite..

Oh! Excuse me.

You made it! Oh, my God!

Hi!

Hey.

Now the party can really start.

Yeah. Where are we?

What's going on?

You know, people wanted

to see me, I was in town.

It turned into like this..

[gasps]

Oh! I love these!

Thank you!

Oh, here!

'Nick, Nick..'

Fire, firemen, flowerman.

Gee, I don't know..

[music continues]

[sighs]

Here you go.

No, really I, I can't.

It's no harm in having

a little fun, huh?

I've been searching

for so long

Baby baby

And I've been looking so far

Waiting for revelation

Baby baby

Baby baby..

I think I owe you a dance.

I can't take it no more

[indistinct]

She's a day dreamer

I think I've seen you

pose on a magazine

My body's crying out

for my beauty queen

I'm searching searching

for who you are

I'm searching searching

She's a day dreamer

I think I've seen you

pose on a magazine

My body's crying out

for my beauty queen

I'm searching searching

for who you are

[Matthew Schuler

singing "Invincible"]

Behind the enemy lines

In the middle of a war

You left my heart to die

just like you did before

Smoke is start

in the clear..

- So, um--

- How many cups have you had?

That is not a party question!

Stop that.

I swore I'd remember

not to fall for you

So hit me with

your best shot

'Cause I'm locked and loaded

I'm just another target

For your head and motives

Fire when ready

fire when ready

Fire when ready

Invincible

Invincible

You can't bring me

You won't bring me

You'll never bring me..

Just get a room.

Invincible

[grunts]

You alright?

You'll never bring me

You good?

Yeah. Thanks.

Sucks to be you tonight.

[instrumental music]

[indistinct chatter]

That was fun, huh?

(Amber)

I-I have no idea where Drew is,

but he definitely left me.

[Amber grunts]

[door opens]

I'll take you home.

It's on my way.

Uh..

- See ya.

- Yeah.

See ya.

Mm.

[sighs]

Let's get that out of your face.

[dramatic music]

[indistinct chatter]

Hi, guys. Is everything alright?

Is everything going okay?

[indistinct chatter]

- Hi, guys.

- Hi.

Hello, nice to see you.

Hey, Tammy. Tammy, guys.

Hey, listen, I'm gonna need

one of you to stay late tonight.

Sarah can't come in, okay?

[cell phone vibrates]

Thank you.

Hey, Bart, Sarah's sick, so I..

What?

What do you mean

she's not home yet?

[instrumental music]

[music continues]

That's my exit.

Where are we going?

[cell phone vibrates]

It's okay.

I got it.

[phone rings]

No, no, no, no.

[automated message]

'Hey, this is Amber's phone..'

- 'Hey, honey.'

- Bart.

I need you to call

Drew's parents now.

[panting]

No! No!

[sobbing]

[grunting]

'No!'

- It's okay.

- 'No!'

Try to open it again.

[sobbing]

Why are you doing this?

Where are you taking me?

'Where?'

[sobbing]

'Where are you taking me?'

[breathing heavily]

'Please, don't..

You don't have to do this.'

- 'Please, no.'

- Yeah, alright.

- Shut up already.

- 'Please, please.'

[sobbing]

Please stop.

Don't even think about it.

You try to get away..

...I will kill you

and your family.

I know where you live.

[sobbing]

[intense music]

[sobbing]

No! No!

Drew said he dropped

her off at the door.

Then where is she?

She's not here.

I-I've already been to Jamie's

house and nobody's there.

I cannot believe that

you let me let her go!

Amy, calm down.

Don't tell me to calm down.

Why haven't you

found her already?

Well, you know someone has

to watch our other kids too.

Look, look, I'm sure another

friend just picked her up.

No, they're on that stupid trip!

No, there's something wrong.

I need you to e-mail,

text, Facebook, I don't care

but find out

if anybody knows anything.

You don't think that's

a little premature?

Look, I'm sure she'll walk

through that door any moment.

Come on, honey.

I know my child.

After the e-mail's out,

I want you to call the police.

- Where are you going?

- Do this for me.

I'm going to find her.

[sighs]

Clean yourself up.

'Bathroom's that way.'

[keys clacking]

[instrumental music]

[keys clacking]

Hurry up in there.

We don't have all day.

[knock on door]

You hear me?

[music continues]

[water running]

[sighs]

[rattling]

[door rattling]

[music continues]

[gasps]

Hey.

[instrumental music]

[keys clacking]

Go ahead.

You should really see this.

Please, you don't have to.

Please.

Please.

Hey, hey, do this

and you can go home.

And I won't have

to kill your family.

Especially that

pretty little sister.

[cell phone ringing]

Hello.

Yeah, we're leaving now.

Oh, Angel's worth every penny.

You will do

everything he wants.

If you don't,

I will know.

Ma'am, kids run away

and come back every day.

I'm sure she's fine.

She has never done this before.

She wouldn't.

She wouldn't.

I've looked,

I've looked every where

that she could possibly go.

Drew is lying,

he is lying.

If she hasn't turned up

by tomorrow

we'll file the paperwork

and we'll start a search, okay?

Thank you.

[indistinct chatter]

[instrumental music]

So Big D's letting you in, huh?

Yeah. Thanks for the hook up.

It seems like

he can't resist fresh merch.

- The merchandise here?

- Yes.

- Intact?

- Yes.

Time to go.

[Amber groans]

[sniffles]

Hey. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

I'm gonna miss you.

Have fun with that.

[engine starts]

Come on.

Hey.

Hey. Oh..

[laughs]

Welcome to the family.

Look. Here.

You ain't got nothin'

to worry about.

Daddy gonna take

real good care of you.

[chuckles]

That's enough, Sugar.

Big D ain't gonna keep cleaning

up after your sorry self!

How did you get to be

bottom girl anyways, BB?

[chuckles]

You better start recognizing

your place around here.

Your head hurt?
