So you think it's possible

that she did do it.

Of course it's possible.

Why didn't you say that

in court?

Because there's absolutely

no evidence.

And Mara's my employee.

l have to think

about that, too.

Fire her.

She's not indispensable.

l can't fire her.

Of course you can.

You can make up any reason--

You don't wanna fire her

because you want her around.

You think about her

all the time, don't you?

You want her.

Why don't you just

admit it?

Because it's not true!

You're obsessed with her!

What's going on?

This isn't like you.

l can't meet the deadline.

lt's just not worth it.

l'd like you to give

all the advanced money back.

Don't be ridiculous.

Has Oraig seen these?

No, l was gonna show him

when l finished the series

but now l'm not doing

the series.

lt's just not really

a very. . . good time for us.

Ever since my mom died,

l've been thinking constantly

about what happened,

but l can't paint it.

[whispering]

But you have to.

Oome on, sweetie.

Alright. Look, l know

that it tastes horrible,

but. . . l'll just do it fast

and then we'll chase it down

with something sweet, okay?

O'mon, that's it!

Good girl.

( Ruby )

Are you giving her more?

You just gave her that

about ten minutes ago.

No, l didn't.

Yes, you did, mommy.

Oh, my God.

Oraig !

Oraig !

( Oraig )

What?

Oall the ambulance.

l think l overdosed Elly.

l gave her two times.

l didn't remember.

l didn't know.

Oh, my God.

l'm so sorry.

Mommy.

Mommy!

l'm right here.

l'm so sorry, sweetie.

Mommy's right here.

Oh, that's a girl.

lt's okay.

lt's only kids' medicine.

lt's not strong.

We'll get it out

of her system.

She'll be fine.

That's a girl.

Why are you crying

such big tears

out of those beautiful eyes?

Well, because they have to spin

all this straw into gold

or the king will kill me

at sunrise.

Oh, no.

Mom, can Rumpelstilskin

be a cat, too?

l think so, yeah.

[thump]

Oraig?

( Sophie )

Hello?

Boo!

Oh, oh !

My goodness.

You frightened me.

You are better, slacker.

We've got you a place

in the country

so you can work.

Daddy's taking time off

to look after us.

Yeah. Ruby and l

felt it was time

you had a break,

so Jen is lending us

her cottage.

lt's not far

and it's quiet there.

You can sleep

and finish your paintings.

We'll come down

on the weekend.

Well, l thought

you could leave on Wednesday.

Today's Wednesday.

No, today is Tuesday.

Okay.

[crickets chirping]

[telephone rings]

Hello?

ls that mommy?

Oraig !

Oraig !

What the f***

is she doing in my house?

Sophie, calm down.

Mara's come around

to do some work.

We're gonna finish

some plans.

Don't you let her get

anywhere near mi girls!

( Oraig )

Sophie?

Where is she?

ls she still here?

Of course she's not.

l'm sorry.

Are you changing the sheets?

l can't believe this.

This is unbelievable.

l n our bed with the girls

still in the house?

Mara has not been

in this room.

Please!

Alright, you leave.

You go with her.

Go with your girlfriend.

Get out!

l don't want you in here.

Get out!

That's it, go!

You are forcing me

to say this.

l don't think the girls

are safe here.

Don't make this about me.

You've given

the wrong medicine.

You're the one that's crazy

'cause you won't listen !

Oalm down !

l am f***ing calm !

( Ruby )

Daddy?

Go to bed, Elly.

l'm not Elly.

Ruby.

l'm sorry, sweetie.

We got a little loud.

lt's okay, honey.

Oome here.

Oome to mamma.

Oome here.

[whispering]

l hate you.

lt's alright, darling.

Where are we going, daddy?

We're going

to Jen's cottage.

[door closes]

[drilling]

[door closes]

[distant yelling of girls]

Mommy!

Oh !

( Elly )

l missed you.

l missed you too, sweetie.

( Sophie )

Okay, well, uhm--

l'm gonna go

get the car.

Right?

Bye, dad.

(birds squawking]

[screams]

[girls scream]

( Sophie )

ls that the date

for my shrink evaluation?

lt's the day

after we get back

on Thursday.

Hey, Elly, not so far out!

These supervised visits

are nonsense.

You'll pass

with fine colors, Soph.

Thanks.

You and Oraig

will sort things out.

He'll be back.

l'm glad we're here, anyway.

l think l'll even get

some petunias

when we get home

and you can help me

plant them.

Okay.

How's work going?

lt's not, really.

l , uh--

Lately l've been thinking

a lot about what happened

and l had hoped to maybe

put us in the book

but now l've decided

against doing it at all.

What you do

is your business, Sophie.

That sure wasn't true

a while back, was it?

You were the one

that decided

that we would be yanked

from New York

and all my friends.

You were only a child.

Yeah. Not so much for a child

that l couldn't get pregnant.

You're not smoking again.

You just said

it was my business.

So. . .who was the father?

Look, it hardly matters now

but your mother,

she asked

just before she died.

Mom asked that?

Was it that boyfriend

of yours, M ichael?

No, it wasn't M ichael.

lt was the prom

and we went to a hotel.

Everybody was drinking.

l didn't even know

what was going on.

M ichael got angry, he left.

There was this guy there.

Nobody knew him.

He was a friend

of a friend of a friend.

l don't even remember

what he looked like.

l was afraid to--

l was afraid to tell you

because l just thought

that'd make everything worse

and mom was so unhappy.

And you were so angry.

l don't. . . even know

his name, dad.

[girls scream and laugh]

Stop, stop!

[sea gulls squawk]

Ruby?

Good luck tomorrow

for the evaluation.

Thanks.

You sure l can't drive you?

No, l'm fine.

Ginger!

Ginger Tom !

Ginger!

Oome here, boy!

Ginger!

Here, Ginger.

( Sophie )

Ginger Tom.

Oome here, Ginger.

l haven't seen him

since you left.

l put some food out

but he hasn't taken it, Debbie.

l do hope

he's alright.

Oh, my God.

Ginger!

Ginger Tom !

Oome here boy.

Ginger!

Ginger Tom.

Ginger!

Ginger Tom !

Ginger Tommy.

Ginger!

[thriller music]

Ginger?

Ginger To--

Ginger?

Tommy?

[meows]

[water running]

Ginger?

Oome here, boy.

Oome here.

[alarm goes off]

[alarm continues wailing]

[alarm stops]

(J immy )

Mara, l thought

you'd gone to work.

[Mara's muffled voice]

(Mara )

l'm just gonna check

down here.

[meow]

[thriller music]

[clink]

You know you're the most

talented one here.

l know you are, anyway.

What have l done now?

Well, l was just fixing

Jen's l nternet

and l couldn't help

noticing her emails.

One email in particular

mentioning an esteemed partner,

M r Oraig Singleton.

The mighty Quinns'

are incredibly pleased

with their house.

They love the textured lighting

in the music room so much.

So, they've talked

to their mate Ohristos

into giving you

the commission !

No.

[laughs]

You've won it!

You've won it!

Jen's out now buying champagne

and the Quinns' are insisting

on telling you themselves!

That's why they're coming ro--

l thought they wanted more

bloody changes!

Oongratulations.

lt is so great when it happens
