Perfect Sisters Page #6

Synopsis: On January 18, 2003, police, alerted by a frantic 911 call from a distraught pair of teenage girls, arrived at the girls Toronto area town house to find their mother dead. It appeared the 44-year-old alcoholic, having slipped into a booze-and-pill stupor, drowned in her own bathwater. The death was ruled accidental by the authorities. In the months that followed, however, police were alerted to rumours and reports that the teenagers had been gossiping to friends about the accident. Police began piecing together rumours that suggested the teens might have had a hand in their mother's death. In fact, rather than an accident, the story that emerged portrayed the two teens as cold-blooded, premeditated killers.

Look at me, look at me, look at me.

Just do what I tell you

and we're gonna be okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Hello?

My mom's not breathing! Please help me!

No, I came back from dinner

with my sister and..

No, I don't know what happened!

She's not breathing!

Please! I need like a f***ing

paramedic or something, please!

Yeah. Yes.

310 Jackson.

We tried everything we could.

I'm very sorry.

Anything I can get you girls?

No. Thank you.

All right.

Let us know when you're ready.

We're gonna need

to ask both of you some questions.

Okay.

Where?

They're gonna do a blood alcohol test

to confirm she was drunk.

Death by vodka.

When I take a bath,

I put the curtain on the outside.

The medical examiner says he's ready

to conclude death by accidental drowning.

Okay.

So...

Doug has already moved all of

Bobby's things to his home, which is great.

It'll be key for Bobby to have

the support of his father during all this.

Thank you.

We tried to get in touch with your father...

but he has yet to return our calls.

Now, as far as the two of you are concerned...

though you are legally old enough

to live on your own...

Child Services prefers that

you live with a friend or a relative.

Your aunt has offered to take you.

Is that an arrangement that

would work for the two of you?

Apparently...

your school already thinks

that you live with me.

Yay!

Yay for us! Yes!

I'll take that as a yes.

Her compassion and sensitivity were envied.

And I think we can all agree...

Linda had a great love for her children.

She would do anything for those three...

Notice how everyones leaving out that she was

a pathetic alcoholic prone to dating a**holes?

All right, you got that, Beth?

All right.

Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god!

- A flat-screen TV.

- Yes, yes, yes!

Beth!

Everyone deals with these things differently.

- This is amazing. Thank you. So much.

- Well, I'm glad, I'm glad.

No, don't. Seriously.

I'm not into PDAs.

Since when?

The whole school is talking about

what happened.

They're like, Did they kill her

like they said they were gonna...

or was it an accident

like the papers are saying?

Oh, yeah, and I almost forgot the best part.

I was talking to Donny

about my party this weekend...

and he specifically asked

if you were going to be there.

Wait.

Wait, wait, wait.

Like Donny? Like biceps Donny?

Like your ex-boyfriend Donny?

That Donny?

No, no, no, no, no!

Oh, my god, oh, my god, oh, my god!

Okay, wait, wait, wait.

Are you okay with that? Like..

Yes, I told you, I dumped his ass.

Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god!

- Oh, my god!

- Justin!

Hey, can I get your picture?

- Thanks.

- Thanks.

Hey, you.

Donny!

Donny, isn't this a great party?

I mean, I love the Coldplay.

Right.

- So listen...

- Yeah?

I gotta ask you the big question.

Thank you,

but I'm not really the marrying type.

You know?

You know what I'm talking about.

Oh, that.

Yes, yes.

Yeah, we pumped a cap in her ass.

I mean, it was like...

- bang! Bang!

- Come on, Sandra.

- I need to talk for just a second.

- What do you want? You!

She didn't even help.

You know, she's a coward.

I did it with one hand...

and it only took me four minutes.

Look, what was it like, you know,

to actually kill somebody?

- Oh, I don't know.

- Hey, hey, hey!

Give the chick some space. Come on, move.

She killed her mom.

Can you please give me a second so like...

Chug! Chug! Chug!

Oh, my god! Oh, my god!

Guys, check it.

Let's just get her home

before she does something stupid.

Again.

You're no fun anymore.

If any of this gets to the police,

Ashley, were totally screwed.

It just takes one person to snitch

to the cops and were dead!

No offense, but...

I really don't wanna be seen

with your sister right now.

Just go.

You helped us do it.

No matter how far

you distance yourself from us...

nothing can change the fact

that you helped us.

Okay. Fine.

- Take it off! Take it off!

- Guys, guys.

Come on, Sandra.

What are you doing? Come on.

Put em away. Come here. Put em away.

Party's over, guys. Party's over.

Well, if it isn't Drunky McPlastered.

Okay.

Okay. All right.

What the hell?

Well, best I can tell from Ashley's ramblings...

you two ended up at the same house

party where you got wasted...

and once again confessed to murder

several times before wandering off, so...

here I am.

Come on, let's go hose you down.

All right.

What?

What?

You remind me of Mom.

I'm just worried about you.

It's like, you've already had

to handle so much in your life...

and now this.

Is that pot?

You know, David, I'm...

I'm not like this girl

you keep imagining that I am.

And what exactly am I imagining you as?

Good.

Well, you're not a bad person.

You're just a person

who's had a lot of bad stuff happen to her.

Do I...

What?

Do I remind you of her?

No.

Whatever.

I cheated on you.

You don't believe me?

I think you don't know

how to let people care about you.

I think all you know

how to do is push people away.

I did a really bad thing, David.

Look, that doesn't matter to me.

It doesn't matter if were together...

or if we're just friends or whatever.

Look, I just want you to know

that I care about you.

And I'll always care about you, okay?

Always.

What if I...

what if I told you her death wasn't an accident?

I don't understand.

Yeah.

Yeah, I...

I blew a guy in a movie theatre

while my girlfriend watched.

Why don't you think about that

while you're caring about me?

Hey. I lied.

You do remind me of her.

Hey, hey, hey.

Sandra?

Sandra?

Please let me go.

No!

I love you more than anything,

you stupid idiot.

No! You didn't see her die!

You didn't see her.

We did what we did to make

our lives better and it worked.

No. We didn't do anything.

I did it alone.

- I killed Mommy alone.

- I know.

No.

I know and I'm so sorry.

If I could go back,

I would do things differently.

Okay? I would.

But you've got to stop talking

about it now, okay?

Please, for you and me?

For you and me,

we have to stop talking about it. Okay?

Yeah, hi.

Who do you talk to if you think

you have information about a murder?

Checking to make sure you didn't

leave anything stupid in cyberspace.

You don't trust me?

What's up?

Hey.

So what do you want?

I'm just...

I'm sorry.

What are you sorry for?

I don't know. Everything.

You know,

everything that's happened to you and...

what I said about you...

thought about you.

That's okay, I mean...

at least you were thinking about me, right?

You wanna go for a drive?

Yeah, that sounds boring.

This okay?

Yeah, yeah, it's all good.

It's all good. It's all good.

You know..

You're acting really weird.

Like even for you.

No, I'm not, I just...

I...

that comment that you made the other night

when we saw each other...

it's been driving me nuts.

I can't sleep at night.

The movie theatre thing?

No.

The other thing.

About your mom's death not being an accident.

Like, what did you mean when you said that?
