I'll be on the first flight out

in the morning.

All right.

Okay, I broke this up into

school records and health records.

Okay.

Thank you, Jamal.

I can't believe he found all this for me.

Yeah. It turns out keeping

a convicted criminal hacker on payroll

actually comes in pretty handy.

There's more printing.

All I could find was like,

sorority princess,

perfect, perfect, perfect...

"Tessa Manning, request to seal

juvenile court record of a minor"?

Okay, well there's gotta be

criminal records then.

- "Child Services psychiatric report."

- Whoa.

"Tessa Manning, age 16,

"when her father left her mother

and moved in with his secretary,

"Tessa became destabilized,

"exhibiting obsessive, negative

and occasional violent behaviors."

She set fire to their house.

To whose house?

Uh, the father's house,

while they were still inside.

Holy sh*t. Did they die?

- No, no, no. It says no one was hurt.

- Oh.

"Father did not press charges.

"Mother, Helen Manning,

declined the recommended

"psychiatric care and family therapy."

Okay. Um...

I feel like I've been pretty cool

about this whole thing.

Like, you wanted to move down here,

I said, "Go for it. YOLO."

He's got a weird ex? Who doesn't, right?

I'm someone's weird ex.

But psycho Barbie setting fire to houses

with people inside, that's...

This is where I draw the line.

We should go home.

You can come home with me tonight,

I can't let you stay here.

No, AI.

I finally have proof,

and I need to show this to David.

Okay, she is dangerous

and she needs to stay away

from all of us from now on.

She can't pretend like

I'm the one that's crazy anymore.

Enough is enough.

Okay.

David?

Are you home early?

Hey, baby.

You look great.

My husband's coming.

Where are you going?

He's coming home any minute now.

Okay. We'll hurry then. It's okay.

Let go of me, Michael.

Okay.

Yeah, if you...

If you go now,

I won't call the police, okay?

- Help!

- Hey!

The police?

What kind of sick f***ing game is this?

You asked me to come.

Oh, my God, she sent you here!

No more games.

Calm down. I'll let you go now.

- I'm calm!

- All right? All right.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

All right? What the f***?

It's all right.

Okay.

F***!

Help, you gotta help me.

You gotta help me.

You've handled this very poorly.

Who the f*** are you?

No, no, no! Argh!

It was you.

You did this. You...

I haven't done any of this.

Tessa Connover, um,

she was the one behind all of this.

Your fianc's ex-wife sets up

a fake Facebook account,

lures your abusive ex here

and then kills him for no reason?

You see what this looks like, right?

I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I just...

It's okay.

I was ashamed.

You know, I just...

I never wanted you to see me like this.

- Hey. Hey.

- Or think of me like this.

You know, like you're always saying

how strong I am.

You are.

I wanted you to always

think of me like that.

I'm not that person anymore.

I'm not that person anymore.

I just never wanted you to see me

like this or think of me like this.

- I don't want you to pity me, you know.

- Shh.

I thought maybe you wouldn't

want me anymore.

Come here.

Listen to me.

Nothing matters but you and I.

We're gonna be okay.

Promise?

I wanna put this behind us. I promise.

You trust me?

Okay.

I love you so much.

Mr. Connover?

- Detective Pope still needs to see you.

- But...

Seems the, uh, meeting

which she initiated went awry.

Look at the last page.

You recognize this?

Yeah. It's my watch.

I just don't understand

how any of this can be happening.

That doesn't make sense.

We'll check out the story

and get to the truth.

I still have a few questions to ask her.

Go see your kid.

You have a lot to deal with.

I couldn't have killed him.

Did I hit something in his leg?

Miss Banks, the guy was stabbed

in his heart.

He didn't stand a chance.

The DA called.

Since the evidence is circumstantial,

I'm gonna have to let you go.

But the investigation is ongoing.

You're required to stay

within a 10-mile radius

and your phone stays here as evidence.

Where is my fianc?

He's waiting for me.

I'm sorry,

I had to show him the file.

He went home to be with his daughter.

David. You're home.

- I need to see Lily.

- Of course.

You're her father.

Hey, it's David.

Leave a message.

David.

Oh, my God.

It should've been mine.

She didn't even know your grandmother.

- Julia was right.

- No.

No, no, no. This is not my fault.

This is her fault.

You should never have brought her here.

I made one mistake.

And you took everything away from me.

Stop.

And gave it all to her!

Right in front of me!

This is my life, David. It's mine!

Tessa!

I'm gonna get you help.

And I'm taking Lily home.

This is your home.

David?

I'll take care of you.

It's okay.

David. David.

David?

Lily...

Okay.

I'll be right back, I promise.

Lily-

I'm gonna carry you to my car.

And I want you to stay there,

go back to sleep with your blankie

and Mr. Weasel. Can you do that?

- Okay.

- Okay.

- Then can we go to our house?

- Yes.

Then we can go back to our house.

All right.

911 emergency.

We have to get David help.

He's hurt, Tessa.

This is my house!

You're right. It's your house.

You're a joke.

You can't do anything right,

can you, Julia?

Even Michael.

After everything he did to you,

you just let him get away.

Again.

You're pathetic.

How do you expect to be a mother

when you can't even

take care of yourself?

You're worthless, Julia.

You will always be worthless.

No.

Not this time.

You will never have what's mine!

You will never have David!

It's not about him!

It's never been about him

and you know it!

He left you two years ago!

I want my life.

Not yours.

David.

Help me, David.

Stop.

Stop. Stop.

Tessa.

Look at yourself. See.

You're doing this, but you can stop.

Please stop.

Why do you always ruin everything?

Stay back. Stay back.

Julia, please.

Don't...

Don't let Lily

remember me like this.

David.

David.

Oh, my God.

Hey.

- Hey.

- Julia.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry.

Please forgive me.

We're okay. We're gonna be okay.

I'm gonna make this up to you.

I promise.

I love you, Julia.

I love you, too.

Leave that clear for the ME.

And we'll do everything

we can for you.

I'm very sorry.

I'll, uh, see you at the hospital.

Miss Banks?

Julia!

- Hey.

- Hey.

- How's it going?

- Are you guys gonna head straight...

Ali.

Hi, um, Lily. Hi, good morning.

Om

Can you, uh, touch my nose?

Oh, thank you, Mrs. Connover.

Hello!

Hi, Humphrey, hi, hello.

I'm gonna pet you later

'cause I need coffee desperately.

I am very hungover from the wedding.

Hi.

I think your front doorbell's broken.

Yeah, well, that and about

10,000 other things.

The longest to-do list in history.

I love this house.

And my room and San Francisco.

- They have the best donuts ever.

- Yeah.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

No. Thank you for your gift, by the way.

You're welcome.
