Breaking the Girls Page #5

---

- Oh my god.

- You're really starting to get paranoid.

- Don't tell me I'm paranoid.

You're not the one who

killed two people. I am.

You never got your

hands dirty at all.

Look. No one ever said anything about

you killing that Brooke girl.

That was all you.

We had a very specific plan,

and you decided to go against it.

And yes, you had to get your hands dirty,

but I had to have sex with David,

which was f***ing disgusting by the way.

I'm sorry about that.

I'm sorry.

Sorry, I don't wanna

hide anything from you.

We're in this together.

Thank God you're

out of there.

Luckily I still have a little pull

at the DA's office.

Thank you so much.

You guys are amazing.

- I've never met anyone like you before.

- What? A criminal?

Well, I've definitely never slept

with a potential convict before...

So, yeah, that's a first.

- So what are you like experimenting?

- You know I'm not.

I do?

Do you want me to 'fess up

to how much I like you?

Yes, please.

I like you.

What is it?

What are you thinking?

I'm scared.

You scare me in a good way.

Nina, Ditch Alex and meet me tomorrow.

Sara

It's Alex.

- I need to talk to you.

- So talk.

Not on the phone, okay?

The mall hall in Overlook.

Okay, fine.

She's freaked out.

That's good.

- Why should I trust you?

- You don't have to trust me.

You can go with Nina,

and you'll both end up in jail.

Or you can remember the promise

that we made to each other.

We make our own rules, Alex.

What's your plan?

We pin it all on Nina.

And you and I walk away with the money.

If Nina's in jail,

I don't get any money.

David cut me out of the will.

Our plan was to share it.

She's never gonna share it

with you, Alex. She told me herself.

But if you can convince her to sign

over 50% of David's estate to you,

Then once she's out of the picture

that money's all yours.

Except for the ten percent,

you give me.

She'll never sign anything.

You've killed people, Alex.

What has she done?

Nothing. She owes you.

She owes you something legally binding

so that you know you're okay.

But Nina would have to die

in order for me to get that.

Kill Nina?

I'll do it myself to show

you that we're even.

She deserves it.

You don't have it in

you to kill anyone.

I would've said

the same thing about you.

- So I guess you forgive me.

- I do.

Do you think there's something

you could do for me?

Of course, anything you want.

Sign over 50% percent

of David's estate?

I'm not signing anything.

I told you when the money came in

I would share it with you.

You still don't trust me, do you?

It would just be a gesture to show

me that you're not gonna leave me.

No matter what I do for you

it's never enough.

- It's just a piece of paper.

- Exactly.

So why is it so important to you?

You of all people know

how hard it's been for me,

When I lost my mom there wasn't any

plan to make sure it's going to be okay.

Please, Nina, it would

just make me feel better.

So now that everything is legal,

do you have a little kiss for me?

Jesus, what is wrong with you?

I did what you asked.

- Why are you acting so weird?

- I'm acting weird?

Everything is fine.

What the hell is going on?

I knew you'd betray me, Nina.

That's why I'm one step ahead of you.

What are you f***ing crazy?

You're just gonna let her shoot me?

I loved you, Nina.

Why did you do this to me?

I love you too.

Listen, we can work this out.

This isn't the answer.

No. I'm not falling

for your sh*t anymore.

This is all just so f***ed up.

Do you think that it was easy

killing Brooke with my bare hands,

watching the life

drain out of her body?

And David? Do you have

any idea what that felt like?!

I just wanted him to pay

for what he did to me and my mother.

And you, Nina...

You turned me into a killer.

So, what's one more body?

Perfect.

Watch your head.

Excellent work, Sara.

Making it sign.

Thank you for believing in me.

You're awesome.

I wish you'd

tell that to the deputy chief

so I could get the lieutenant promotion.

You guys take care, alright?

Thank you.

Well, if we survived this,

we could survive anything.

- Thank you.

- See?

Going to the police

was a good idea after all.

Come on, let's go home.

No doubt about it.

Alex Layton is gonna be spending

the rest of her life in prison.

Thank God.

And Nina gets immunity

for testifying, right?

Yes, she does.

The only thing that's

still confusing is why

Alex picked you from

the very beginning.

Maybe she picked me 'cause

I was a scholarship kid.

She was counting on

me to be desperate.

- Nina gets all that money?

- Yeah, I think so.

Hey, where're you going?

- I have to say goodbye.

- What are you talking about?

It's just for a little while.

- C'mon, you can't be serious.

- I have to.

I just need some time

to figure things out.

- How long will that take?

- I don't know.

I'm sorry, I...

I need to go to my aunt's house

in Topanga.

Clear my head.

Why do I feel like

I'll never gonna see you again?

What's up, Eric?

Where's Sarah?

I haven't seen her in a while.

Yeah, she's taking some time off.

Oh. Well, I miss her.

She was always a lot of fun.

I mean, she was always up

with something, you know?

Like it was this one time she gave me

$20 if I hit on that crazy Alex chick.

I guess it was her idea

of a joke on me.

- Alex was one cold b*tch.

- Wait. She did what?

She gave me $ 20 to hit on Alex

Layton when she sat down at the bar.

Weird, right?

Hello?

Sara?

Sorry, I knocked,

but nobody answered.

Are you Sara's aunt?

Yeah, who are you?

Eric Nolan.

I'm a friend of Sara's.

You're Eric?

Nice to meet you.

- Is she here?

- I haven't seen her in weeks.

Tell her to call me or something

if you see her.

Okay.

Yeah, I will.

- Is this her?

- Yeah, that's Sara.

Cute, isn't she?

That's her mom.

That car was like her third child.

She has a sister?

Yeah, that's Sara and her sister there

at their high school graduation.

I haven't heard from Janine in ages.

You never know with those two.

Janine?

She goes by "Nina"?

Yeah, half sisters.

Same mom, different dad.

- You can't go back there, Sara.

- I know.

A clean start.

That's the promise we made ourselves.

Don't get emotionally attached.

Give me that.

We'll just never gonna be those

girls that get to fall in love,

and have a normal life.

At least not after all this.

In fact, I'd be happy if I never

have to see another dick again.

You know what is funny?

What got me through it all?

What?

All those nights I had to be with David,

I was thinking about Alex.

- Alex?

- I know.

She was a crazy motherf***er,

But somehow she knew how to make you feel

like you're the only girl in the world.

Like you were safe.

And I sent her to prison

for the rest of her life.

Casualty of the job.

Something like that.

Eric, my aunt told me

you stopped by.

Today we're going to the last

place our mom was alive.

I only hope we found some peace

for her... if that's even possible.
