I hope to hear good things from him.

Guys.

Okay, everybody chill out. Chill out, guys.

Sandra.

[GIRLS GIGGLING AND CHATTERING]

[BUS DOOR CLOSES]

CAROL:

When you see Peter leave with Abby, text "hi."

You'll receive a "hi" back and Andy

will come and chaperone the class.

Then you, you need to follow Peter

at a distance.

When Maggie arrives, text a smiley face.

Be sure to keep your phone with you.

That's how we know where you are.

And they know not to harm Peter, right?

No one's gonna harm anyone.

Most likely you won't even see Maggie.

We'll be sure to take her on entry.

Peter will never know

that you were involved.

Happy endings for all.

WOMAN:
When we say "prehistoric,"

we mean "pre-writing"...

...a time before man could record

his written experience.

And in 3500 BC,

which was only about 5000 years ago...

...the written language

and thus man's recorded history began.

I wanna go back inside.

Just a second.

What am I being punished for?

Nothing.

Nothing, okay? You're not in trouble.

Okay. Listen, can you keep a secret?

My friend Maggie, she is an actress...

...and she wants to hang out with kids...

...because she is going to be

playing a mother, right?

So she just wants somebody

that she can, you know, play pretend with.

And I picked you.

I hope you don't mind.

Is she on TV?

Where's Maggie?

Go out the side entrance with Abby.

You'll receive a call with instructions.

No.

No way. This is not what we agreed to.

Tell Maggie that it has to be here or nothing.

I'll chaperone your class.

Take off your shoes.

Lorna's watching the class.

That's not the issue.

Take off your shoes.

Don't take those off, Abby.

I wanna meet Maggie.

No, you don't.

This is not what we agreed to.

You have half an hour till your bus boards.

Maggie's gonna get what she wants,

with or without you.

[MEL SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

Come on.

Why do we take off our shoes?

Shh. We gotta keep quiet now, okay?

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

This is not what we agreed to.

This is not--

Yeah. Yeah, I see it. I see the...

Don't be scared.

Why would I be scared?

MAGGIE:

Don't come any closer.

Okay, I'm ready. Just the girl.

If I take off my shawl,

will you take off your hat?

How do you know my secret handshake?

You taught it to me.

Shelly Whipple, you're under arrest.

What?

OFFICER:
You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can be used...

...against you in a court of law.

You have the right to an attorney.

If you cannot afford an attorney,

one will be provided.

MAGGIE:
Wait.

She's sick, you bastards!

OFFICER:
Come on.

Let her go! Let her go!

MEL:

What did you do, Peter?

Traitor.

You traitor.

Let's go call the attorney.

Who is she?

I don't know.

MAGGIE:

Peter.

It's not my choice.

It's yours.

[HOT CHIP'S "THIEVES IN THE NIGHT"

PLAYING]

My friend once told me

Something so right

He said to be careful

Of thieves in the night

Baby, I've lost you here in the crowd

Open your arms

I want to be found

Maybe I'm calling your name in the night

Open our eyes

We'll feel with our sight

A Want is a lack but also desire

A need can be nothing

But should be held higher

A need is a want wearing disguise

It can be confused if fueled by desire

Baby, I'm calling your name in the night

No reason with need

Look into my eyes

Happiness is what we all want

May it be that we don't always want

Happiness is what we all want

May it be that we don't all want

My friend once told me

Something so right

He said to be careful

Of bugs that don't bite

My friend once told me

Something so right

He said to be careful

Of thieves in the night

Happiness is what we all want

May it be that we don't always want

Happiness is what we all want
