'cause the man I

married would not...

would not do

something like that!

What do you want? What

do you want me to do?

Just tell me, and I'll do it.

What I need is for you

to just leave me alone.

Just go.

I can't leave you here, Liz.

Not with him out there.

It's not safe.

You've done enough for one day.

Please just get out.

Do you...

You respect me so little, you

can't even tell me the truth?

Just go. Please just go!

You're making a really

big mistake right now.

Well, you would

know, wouldn't you?

Get out!

Whoa, Chris, slow down.

What?

Oh, come on. What's

your problem?

I just... I don't want to.

You snuck out of your house

to spend the night with me,

and you don't want to?

Wait. Is this what you

thought this was gonna be?

Yeah. Yeah, I did.

I'm sorry. I just...

I don't think I'm ready.

You don't think you're ready?

Look, why don't you just take me home?

You know what? Why don't I not!

Chris, come on!

Stupid tease!

Chris!

Chris!

Wait!

I left my phone in your car!

Hi, this is McKenzie.

Leave a message.

Hello? Hi, Judy.

It's Elizabeth, McKenzie's mom.

I just wanted to check in,

see how the party was going.

San Diego is beautiful, and the

girls are having such a great time.

How's McKenzie feeling?

What do you mean?

We're sorry she

couldn't make it,

but the girls and I hope

she's feeling better.

You mean she's not there with you?

Wait, wait, wait.

Kimmy said she was sick

and had to cancel.

Okay, I need you

to ask Kimmy where she is.

Kimmy!

Mrs. Chase is on the phone. Why does

she think McKenzie's here with us?

Answer me.

She wanted to see Chris,

so I told her I'd cover for her.

All right, tell Kimmy that

if McKenzie calls her,

she needs to call me

as soon as she can.

All right? Thank you.

Hi, you've reached Paul Chase.

Please leave a message.

Thank you.

Come on, come on, come on.

Mrs. Chase!

Got something for you!

I know you're inside!

Oh, no.

Come on out.

Javier, please. Ten...

Please, no. Nine...

No, Mom, don't do it! Shut up!

Eight... Oh!

Seven, six...

five, four...

three, two...

Stop, I'm here!

Please don't hurt her!

Jorge, please.

Come on.

Are you hurt?

She's fine!

Look, I know about Omar.

Don't mention my son's name.

He was a good kid.

So is McKenzie.

I'm so sorry this happened to you.

Please...

It's too late for apologies.

Let me have your phone.

Daddy's on his way.

Elizabeth!

Eliz... Paul, look out!

What do you want?

I want you to admit

what you did to my son.

I didn't do anything.

No, you just looked at him.

You saw a criminal.

That was a good kid. Had his

whole life ahead of him.

What is this about? Revenge?

This is about what's

right and what's wrong.

No!

Come on. Go, go!

All right, girls.

Come on, now.

You could run, but

you can't hide.

Now, come on. McKenzie!

I got another Spanish

lesson for you!

Ah!

Okay.

Get under there.

Get right under.

Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh. Be

as quiet as you can, okay?

Mrs. Chase, where are you?

Just stay here, okay?

Stay here, be quiet.

Come on, now.

No time for games.

Uh-uh.

Come here. It's okay.

It's over. It's over.

Hey. Hi.

So, are you three all packed?

Oh!

Yeah, so much as I can tell.

I can't believe you're

giving up this house.

I totally understand why.

Mm-hmm. Well, it was a little

too big for us, anyway.

Yep, we're gonna have a

fresh start, you know?

Clean slate. In a

number of ways.

Yeah, I'm actually

bringing in an associate,

cutting my hours way down, spending

a little more time with the family.

Mm-hmm. Aw!

We found this great house.

It's got a great

school right nearby,

and there's an

equestrian center,

so McKenzie can keep Charlie.

How's the kitchen?

Completely renovated.

So you don't need a

contractor or anything?

That's funny. No, no.

So maybe you'll have

time to attend this.

What is this?

Whoa! Yep, the board

of directors met,

and it was unanimous.

I know it's not

exactly a wing...

Oh, uh, I'll take it.

Oh, my gosh.

So I can count on you

to be there, then?

Uh, with bells on. And you

are coming to this one.

Okay.

Well, kids, I'm gonna take off,

beat the traffic.

You all take care.

All righty. See you later.

You, too. You behave yourself.

Bye. Ohh.

Thanks.

- Bye. See you later.

- Bye, Kate.

Drive safe. Thank you.

Wow, Mom. Congrats.

I'm proud of you. Thanks.

You're still grounded.

Can I drive? No.

You can carry your box, though.

Thanks.
