here and watch Mom.

Okay, we need to stop

watching after Mom.

She's supposed to watch after us.

Oh. Well, why don't you figure

out what the hell's going on,

and I'll stay here and

cover for you. Okay, bye.

Bye.

Hey.

Uh, I noticed you haven't

used the workshop yet.

- What workshop?

- Uh, the workshop that I built for you.

I didn't put it

there to gather dust.

- Hey, are you okay?

- I think my blood sugar dropped.

- Well, do you want me to get you something?

- No. No, no, no.

Sorry.

Okay, I got to meet Shane

in, like, 10 minutes.

Well, that's cool. Just go.

I'll meet up with you later.

You sure? Yeah. I'm fine.

Okay. Bye. Thanks.

Oh! I'm actually just closing up.

Um, do you know if the Parsons family lived here?

Till about four months ago.

Is this their furniture?

We're selling the house furnished. Oh.

It's too bad about the

woman dying in a car crash.

It's worse than that.

The wife and husband died.

Wait. Both parents? Didn't you know?

She ran into him with her

car. Like really rammed him.

As far as I'm concerned,

she did it on purpose.

And I'm not the only one who thinks so.

And that poor little

girl in the backseat.

It's tragic really.

Oh. Excuse me. Yes, Jason.

Uh-huh. The condo is

still on the market.

No. Lower. Lower.

What do we really know about Sarah?

He said the mother was unstable.

She was abusing the girl.

The wife and husband died.

My dad died in a car accident too.

She ran into him with her car.

He wanted to get her out of there

and thought our family could help.

I didn't feel anything.

Mommy?

Mommy, wake up. Mommy!

Mommy, I need you, please.

Mommy, please wake--

Now that you're

back, you like it here?

Did you miss it?

You know what, Darryl?

I appreciate all your help. I really do.

But we're gonna move back to

the city after the summer.

Oh. Well, we don't have to stay here.

I've got money saved.

You know? It'll buy us

a house in the city.

I mean, nothing fancy.

But if that's what you want.

You know what I want?

I want Robert back.

Well--

That's not what I was hoping you'd say.

He's my husband.

And he got everything he wanted.

The only thing I asked

him not to take from me--

He took it anyway.

What are you saying?

I used to, uh, wake up early...

just so I could pass you

in that little hallway.

You always smelled

like strawberries.

And I--

I had to hear you and

Robert every time you...

two were together.

And don't tell

me-- You need to stop.

that you didn't know, Helen.

You need to stop.

But that was a long time ago.

But now-- now-- No. No.

There is no now.

After all these years,

coming back here was crazy.

I trusted you. What are

you talking about? Wha--

You're f***ing watching me, Darryl.

You're-- You're f***ing watching me.

Helen, I would-- I would

never do that to you.

Just stop. I would never--

Helen, please-- Don't touch me.

Helen, I would-- Go away.

Mom? Sarah and I heated up dinner.

Are you all right? Yeah, I'm fine.

All right. Well, Lenore went

out for the night with Kate.

Okay.

Have you seen Darryl?

No. His truck's gone.

He didn't show up for breakfast.

He's been gone all night.

I'm sure he'll turn up.

Hey.

Where'd you get that? Come here!

Hey!

Where did you get this?

Huh? Elise gave it to me.

When? Yesterday.

So you've seen her?

You've talked to her.

She--

She gave you her I.D.?

Right before she left.

No. She forgot it. I

found it. That's all.

You're so full of sh*t.

What are you doing?

Where's Elise? I found

her car. Where is she?

Huh? What did you do?

Nothing.

Your stupid girlfriend

did it all to herself.

What did you do?

Huh?

How does it feel?

How does it feel to have something

you care about simply disappear?

Just like that.

Wait.

What?

Could you please explain this to me?

It was your father's idea to

bring her into your family.

What, you knew this, and

you still helped him?

You don't understand.

Chris was manic-depressive.

As her condition worsened, she

refused to take her medication,

and she started to abuse Sarah.

Your father was-- He

didn't know what to do.

He could have told us. He planned to.

And then he was killed. Yeah,

by Sarah's demented mother.

Don't blame the girl.

She's your half sister.

Did Sarah know?

About us, I mean, before

my dad died. Possibly.

She's a confused and lonely girl.

She's trying to understand.

Losing-- You don't understand.

Before my dad died, he sent an armed missile

into our family, and you helped him.

Kate, it's me. Call me back when you get this.

I need a ride back to Mom's.

Whatever. I'm just gonna go

to the bus stop right now.

Come on, Mom. Answer the phone.

- What did you do today, Sarah?

- I played.

With what?

Some junk out there.

- Be careful. Always wash your hands afterwards.

- I did.

Tell Conrad I need him. Okay.

I need something. I feel weak.

Why isn't there any food?

Darryl, I'm looking for--

- You have to leave.

- What?

I want you out. Please get

out of here by tomorrow.

Is that why there isn't any food?

I don't want you around me anymore.

- I understand. But why?

- I want it to be over.

Just-- I want it to be over.

Sarah, get Conrad. Tell him I

need my glucagon shot now. Please.

Sarah.

Sarah.

I'm gonna tell you a story...

about a girl who lived with her mother

and father in a beautiful house.

They had everything they ever wanted,

except one thing.

The father would go away

on many long trips,

disappearing for days at a time.

This made the mother very unhappy.

She did terrible things to her

daughter when her father was away.

The girl would wait by the window

for her father to come home.

And then one day the mother found...

that his many trips were

made to another family.

He had a whole other

family to replace us with.

Then the mother got angrier.

Until one day the father came home...

and wanted to take his girl away...

to a new home-- to his other family.

"No," said the mother. "You'll never,

ever take my girl away from me."

She refused to give her up.

And when he went to leave, she

smashed into him with her car.

They both died a horrible death.

After, the girl vowed that whoever

did this to her family would pay.

Do you like the story?

Son of a b*tch.

Do you wanna hear the ending?

It's happy...

and sad.

They're all gone.

Your family's all gone!

How does that feel?

Connie?

Connie?

Connie!

Sh*t! Connie!

Connie! Connie?

Connie! Connie!

Conrad?

Connie! Conrad!

Connie!

Oh! Oh!

Conrad, are you okay? Just wait,

okay? I'm gonna go get Mom.

I'm gonna go get--

Mom? Mom?

Oh, my God. Mom?

Mom! Mom!

Okay, okay, okay.

Mom? Mom?

Mom. Mom?

Okay, okay.

Come on.

Okay. Good.

Please stop her.

You can't hurt me.

You don't know how.

No!

Mom. Mom. Mom! Mom!

Mom!

Mom! Mom!

Lenore?

Mom! Mom! Mom!

I can't hold you.

Hang on. I'm gonna get some rope.

Hurry. I'll be right back.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

- I can't. - Yes, you can.

Don't be scared. I'm right here.
