Everything's fine.

But could you send her to me?

- Would that be all right?

- Sure will.

- Thank you so much. Good to see you.

- Thank again.

Hey, Matt.

What's this?

Call this number

as many times as it takes

till you speak to this guy personally.

He's an old family friend of my dad's.

And I need you to ask him

to pull any information he can

on a Agata Prejean.

- Agata Prejean.

- All right?

- Roger that.

- Thank you.

Why are you doing that?

Because you know my mom

never staffs these events,

and we've never had a

housekeeper named Bessie.

So we gotta find Agata Prejean.

Auntie Aggie, thank God.

Okay, what's going on?

Did you get in okay?

- And... and, where are you now?

- Never mind that.

Leona, now listen, if I don't call you

by tomorrow morning

go and get the laptop out of my car.

What do you mean if you don't

call me by tomorrow morn...

You know what, what is going on?

And what kind of mess

did you get yourself into?

Listen, do you want me

to come over there and get you?

'Cause I will come over there right now.

You better believe I will snatch

you up in a heartbeat.

Leona, will you

just go do what I tell you?

Get the laptop from the car.

All right. I'll do whatever it takes.

Okay.

So now why are we having

everybody wear these?

Well, it's just an idea

Wil and I came up with.

I thought it'd make the night

a little more festive.

Well, you're not getting

one of these on my dress.

Uh-huh, well, I figured as much

- 'cause I knew you...

- Shh.

Oh...

you look so handsome.

Thanks Mom, but I feel ridiculous.

Ah, who cares.

You look marvelous.

I'll be back to get you guys

at 6:
00, all right?

- You got it?

- Just now.

- What's you got on there?

- Who is this guy, anyway?

How'd he get a profile

on that woman so quickly?

He's in the secret service.

Of course he is.

Is there anyone that your dad

does not know?

- Will you look at that?

- What?

It turns out this nice old lady

is not a clean as we thought.

She's connected with

my dad's brother, Jack.

I need you to find

Lennon and and Langston

and meet me at the front entrance.

If she's still inside

I want to find her.

We found her car. Two guys at

added in case she tries to leave.

All right, good.

Make sure they call me

if they see her, all right?

The two of you split up

and surround the perimeter.

Got it?

- All right.

- Go.

She's still here somewhere.

- Let's go.

- All right.

Oh, God. Come on,

Aggie, you can do this.

Just go.

Did anyone scour the east grounds yet?

- I'll do it right now.

- All right.

Let me check the kitchen.

Matt!

Oh...

Oh! Miss Lottie!

I need your help, Miss Lottie, please.

You've gotta help me save my girls.

You're the only one that can save them.

I need your help.

My girls need your help.

Please, you've got to save them.

I got this, Mom.

I got this.

No, wait a minute.

I can't do it by myself.

- Please, Miss Lottie.

- That's enough.

Wil, clearly this woman

needs some kind of help.

- I need your help.

- I got it, Mom. That's enough.

- I don't mean to cause no trouble.

- Listen to me.

I'm not here to cause no trouble.

I came here to...

- That's enough.

- Let go of me.

Would you mind escorting

Miss Prejean out, please.

I'll be there in a moment.

Wil, please.

Matt, don't you take another step.

Wil, what's going on?

This lady's connected to Jack.

- What?

- What?

She may be the one

that's sending the emails.

What emails?

Someone's been sending

some nasty messages.

We think they're linked to Jack

and he's got himself

into some sort of mess.

Is that why we have

so much security here tonight?

Yes, honey, and just let Wil

do his job, okay?

All right...

Well, look, that woman

is obviously not a threat.

I am sure of it.

So why don't you go down with Matt,

you start the party without me and, Wil,

you can come with me

while I talk to her.

I gotta see what's going on.

Keep her safe, all right?

Matt, I got it.

Thank you.

Now, ma'am, tell me your name.

- Agata Prejean.

- Mm-hmm.

But everybody calls me Aggie.

Aggie, come with me.

Tell me how we can help you.

Through her own determination,

Aggie had found us, and together,

we would unravel the truth.

Her mind at peace now,

drifted back to happier times.

Oh, nobody can draw a bird in flight

like you can, Skye, girl.

Skye?

That's a good one.

I just wish I could have a real one,

- like as a pet.

- That would be so cool

to have a real pet bird.

Can we please get one?

No, no, no.

That is not good at all.

- Why not?

- Because...

God made beautiful birds

to soar the open skies,

not to be trapped in a cage.

But I would take care of it

and love it so much.

No amount of love

is gonna make a caged bird happy.

- Mama Aggie!

- No!

- Hello?

- Hey, you okay?

Oh, Leona, I'm sorry.

I'm good.

Everything is good.

- What time is it?

- Uh, it's around 7:45.

Oh, my goodness.

I have got to meet the DuLonde's

in 15 minutes.

Oh, let me tell you this one thing

before I get off.

Ooh, that Miss Lottie.

She's like an angel sent from heaven.

Yes, she is.

I gave her the laptop from the car,

and she gone take care of everything.

Girl, I can't believe this.

Okay, you know what, go to your meeting,

but then call me when you can.

Okay, talk to you later.

Oh, thank you, Lord.

Thank you, Lord.

Thank you, Lord.

Thank you, Mark.

Ya'll she's gonna be here any minute.

Please let's all

just be very gentle with her.

This is gonna be difficult

for her to take in.

Oh.

Miss Aggie.

Good morning.

How'd you sleep?

Oh, just fine, thank you.

Oh, this outfit looks so pretty on you.

Well, thank you so much for the clothes,

but you really shouldn't have gone

through the trouble.

Oh, we're just glad that you came to us.

I'd like to introduce you to Richard.

This is my husband.

It's a pleasure.

I... I don't know how

I can possibly make up

for the pain my brother's

caused you and your family.

Well, ain't nothin' that you've done.

- Okay.

- Uh, Miss Aggie,

I'd like to introduce you

to Alicia Stevens.

Hi.

I've invited her here today

'cause she's an expert

- on what we're gonna be talking about.

- Expert, okay.

And you remember my son, Wil.

Oh, you're not gonna arrest me

like I'm a criminal,

- are you?

- No, Ma'am.

I'm so sorry about that, Miss Aggie.

Sure, I understand.

Uh, please, sit down.

Would you like some tea?

- No.

- Okay.

Miss Aggie, since we spoke last night,

we've learned a great deal.

Uh, Wil's friend, Tyler,

has been up all night.

He's a computer expert,

and he's been pulling

as much information

as possible off of Jack's laptop.

Well, did you find Jack and Elle?

Are they with Skye?

Um...

Honey, Macy was right.

Uh, Jack does have Elle with him.

He's gonna try to sell her.

Jack's gotten involved

with a drug cartel, Miss Aggie.

It seems he owes them a lot of money.

He's trying to save his own life,

and it looks like

Elle is his ticket out.

Several days ago Jack went to Greece.
