00:00:00James, hey, wake up.
00:00:23Honey, honey, I think there's someone in the house.
00:00:30Honey, honey, I think there's someone in the house.
00:01:00There's somebody in the house.
00:01:06James, James, wake up.
00:01:08James, wake up.
00:01:10Wake up, James.
00:01:11There's somebody down here.
00:01:13Here's help.
00:01:15Somebody in the house, James.
00:01:16Look at me.
00:01:17Look at me.
00:01:30Good morning, husband.
00:01:46Good morning, wife.
00:01:49I didn't know you were up.
00:01:51Why?
00:01:53I didn't think I was the, hey, we're in Vegas, let's get hitched kind of girl.
00:01:57Yeah.
00:01:58Well, here we are.
00:02:00Damn right.
00:02:01I got you something.
00:02:08You did?
00:02:11It's just a little post-wedding gift.
00:02:14A small token of my love.
00:02:17Babe, I didn't get you anything.
00:02:21You gave me everything.
00:02:22Go ahead.
00:02:27Open it.
00:02:29Okay.
00:02:39Wow.
00:02:39You said you had a watch like it in your 20s that you lost, so.
00:02:46Yeah, I just, I can't believe that you remembered that story.
00:02:56You're welcome.
00:02:57Wow.
00:03:03Uh, so, is Mara cool with this, with us, you know, getting married now?
00:03:11I, I think so.
00:03:13I mean, we're going to have to do something more formal with her sometime soon, but.
00:03:17Absolutely.
00:03:18You know, and my mom is going to move in a minute, so, you know, we can all celebrate our
00:03:22love together.
00:03:23I don't like the sound of that.
00:03:26Hmm.
00:03:27What time's our flight?
00:03:29Uh, it's at noon, so I'll go pick her up and, look, I really, I can't thank you guys
00:03:33enough for letting her stay with us.
00:03:36It means a lot.
00:03:37I just moved in.
00:03:39Now, you've got two of us to deal with.
00:03:41We're family.
00:03:44I mean, I guess it was a little bit weird, but you and I tied the knot.
00:03:47I haven't even met your mom, but.
00:03:49Yeah.
00:03:51Yeah, and she's just, uh, Maggie's been too sick to travel lately.
00:03:55I'm telling you, Kristen.
00:03:56Listen, diabetes can be a real bitch.
00:04:01I should warn you.
00:04:03I can kind of make her one, too.
00:04:05Well, I'm sure I can handle her.
00:04:07I mean, I know I can handle you.
00:04:12Your form is so good.
00:04:27Look, I don't, I don't mean to ruin your workout.
00:04:34I just want to check in on you.
00:04:35Oh, no, it's no worries.
00:04:36It was just about done.
00:04:39I didn't see James this morning.
00:04:41Where is he?
00:04:41Are you speaking his mother up at the airport, remember?
00:04:44Oh, yeah.
00:04:44That's today.
00:04:46You two have been a couple for, like, what, six months now?
00:04:49I cannot believe you haven't even met his mom.
00:04:53Well, I think that this way, isn't it awesome we get to meet her together?
00:04:58Yeah, sure.
00:04:59Why not?
00:05:01Honey, look, I know I've asked you this a bunch of times, but you're...
00:05:03You're not upset, right?
00:05:07I mean, about us running off to get married.
00:05:09No.
00:05:11No, I just...
00:05:12I think that maybe it feels a little...
00:05:16Soon.
00:05:18I usually reserve that term for bad jokes about tragedy, but...
00:05:23Yeah, maybe a little...
00:05:26But you like him, though, right?
00:05:28James?
00:05:29No, yeah.
00:05:30I really do.
00:05:32I see the way that he treats you.
00:05:33It's very sweet, and I think that you deserve it, but...
00:05:39Like you said, it just...
00:05:41It happened so fast, and I feel like you're still pretty vulnerable after everything that happened last year.
00:05:49Maybe.
00:05:52Honey, I'm an adult, and I know what's right for me.
00:05:57I'm so much better than a year ago.
00:05:59You know, you and James are a big part of why.
00:06:07Heck, you know, between my loving daughter and my new husband and my shrink, I'm pretty much as good as new.
00:06:15I know.
00:06:16I know how terrible it all was, but...
00:06:17Honestly, Mom, think about it like this.
00:06:20How many people really get stalked twice in their lifetime?
00:06:23I have no idea that if there's one, that's one too many.
00:06:30Mom, I would like for you to meet my gorgeous and generous wife, Kristen, and her awesome and equally generous daughter, Mara.
00:06:57This is my mom, Maggie.
00:07:00It's so nice to finally meet you, Maggie.
00:07:03Welcome to our home.
00:07:05Yeah, our casa is your casa.
00:07:09Mom, would you like to say something to your host?
00:07:13Where's my room?
00:07:14Mom, come on.
00:07:16Be nice.
00:07:17Thank you for allowing me to stay with my boy.
00:07:23You're welcome.
00:07:25We're happy to have you.
00:07:26Yeah, we are happy to have you, Mom.
00:07:29Let's sit down.
00:07:29Isn't that nice?
00:07:36I'll try not to be too much trouble.
00:07:40Oh, I'm sure there'll be no trouble at all.
00:07:43Say cheese.
00:07:44What are you doing?
00:07:45I'm just taking your picture.
00:07:48Why?
00:07:49Posterity.
00:07:50I hate having my photo taken.
00:07:52Put that thing away now.
00:07:54It's okay.
00:07:55It's okay, Mom.
00:07:56It's okay.
00:07:57Why don't I go get some refreshments?
00:07:59Hey, Mara, would you help me?
00:08:00Oh, yeah, sure.
00:08:01Yeah.
00:08:01Great.
00:08:02Let's leave these two to get a little better acquainted.
00:08:04Mm, all right.
00:08:05All right.
00:08:10So it's Kristen, right?
00:08:12That's me.
00:08:13Okay.
00:08:15Well, you got a good-sized house here, Kristen.
00:08:20Oh, thanks.
00:08:22A bit tacky for my taste, but that's neither here nor there.
00:08:27Good for you, living high on that hog.
00:08:29You get the money from your first husband or something?
00:08:32Um, no, actually, Mara's father passed away when she was little.
00:08:42For the record, I'm the breadwinner of the family.
00:08:44Oh, no, is that right?
00:08:47What exactly does the breadwinner do to make all that dough rise?
00:08:51I'm a divorce attorney.
00:08:53Ah, got it.
00:08:56So while all those miserable, desperate people are suffering right there in front of you,
00:09:01you're just sitting there, billing the hours and raking in that cash.
00:09:05I mean, I'm not just sitting there.
00:09:09Oh, no, of course not.
00:09:11I'm just kidding.
00:09:13So, how'd you get my boy to marry you anyway?
00:09:15Oh, well, actually, it was, um, James was, you know, the one who suggested that we do it on the spot.
00:09:24Was the wedding nice, or what?
00:09:28Because this mother of the groom never saw a damn photo.
00:09:33There you go.
00:09:35Now we're family.
00:09:37All of us.
00:09:40Isn't that wonderful?
00:09:42Yeah, I feel the same way.
00:09:44See?
00:09:45Look at you two.
00:09:46I knew it.
00:09:47A couple peas in a pod.
00:09:53Mom, is everything okay?
00:09:55Yeah.
00:09:55Yeah, I'm, uh, great.
00:09:57This is going to be so much fun.
00:10:02Uh, you wanted to see me?
00:10:08What's up?
00:10:09Come here.
00:10:10Yeah?
00:10:10Look, I just...
00:10:12What's going on?
00:10:13Kristen, just say it.
00:10:18Did your mother say anything to you about me?
00:10:22Just that she was thankful that you opened up your home to her.
00:10:27Really?
00:10:27She said that?
00:10:28I mean, I get the feeling that she doesn't like me all that much, and I have no idea what I did wrong.
00:10:33Okay, I don't...
00:10:35What happened?
00:10:35I mean, was it something in her tone, maybe?
00:10:37More like something in her words.
00:10:40Ah, Chris, I don't know.
00:10:41Is she just from a different era?
00:10:43And yeah, I mean, she can be a little rough around the edges.
00:10:46You think?
00:10:46Yeah, but trust me, she has a big heart, and it's usually in the right place.
00:10:53She's probably just testing you and see what you're made of.
00:10:57Great.
00:10:57I got an F on the first day.
00:10:59Look at me.
00:11:01Relax, okay?
00:11:02I love you and Mara.
00:11:06And yeah, this happened really fast.
00:11:09But we have the rest of our lives to take it easy.
00:11:12All of us.
00:11:13So let's just, you know, let Maggie get used to her new surroundings.
00:11:17I promise.
00:11:19This is all going to work out.
00:11:21Come here.
00:11:32What are you doing here?
00:11:41Well, maybe I just want to see that pretty face of yours.
00:11:44What do you want, Ross?
00:11:47Your request for child support is killing me, baby.
00:11:51Excuse me, baby?
00:11:53You know I don't have that much money.
00:11:55Shrinks make way more money than private investigators.
00:11:58Well, it's not my fault.
00:11:59You know I hate the word shrink.
00:12:00You know, I don't even know why we're getting divorced.
00:12:03Because you slept with your secretary, remember?
00:12:06Right.
00:12:08Hi.
00:12:10Good morning.
00:12:11Sorry, did I make a mistake?
00:12:12Is this not my hour?
00:12:13No, no, I'm sorry.
00:12:14Kristen, of course it is.
00:12:16I'll call you later.
00:12:17I know you will.
00:12:21Please, come in.
00:12:23Thanks.
00:12:27Apologies again, Kristen.
00:12:28That's my soon-to-be ex, and he, oh, never mind.
00:12:33I'm sure you hear about this divorce stuff all day long,
00:12:35and that is not at all the reason you're here.
00:12:39How are you doing?
00:12:41I'm, uh, I'm okay.
00:12:44You sure?
00:12:44You seem a little more undone today than usual.
00:12:47Did something happen?
00:12:49Maggie happened.
00:12:50Maggie?
00:12:50James' mother moved in with us a couple days ago.
00:12:54Okay, so, you have someone new living in your house.
00:12:58Yeah.
00:12:59She, um, she has diabetes, and she has to use a walker to get around.
00:13:03That poor woman, that's awful.
00:13:05What's she like?
00:13:07She doesn't like me, I can tell you that much.
00:13:09How do you know?
00:13:09I don't know, I'm just, the way that she looks at me, you know, I'm just cold, dismissive.
00:13:18The first time we met, she said something to me about my quickie wedding with her boy.
00:13:22Oh, sounds to me like she's just a little hurt that she didn't get to see you two get married.
00:13:26It sounded more to me like she was upset she didn't get to stop it.
00:13:29Well, mothers-in-laws, the new brides, butting heads, that's not exactly an uncommon thing.
00:13:36But, um, how's your mind doing otherwise?
00:13:41I'm, uh, I'm good.
00:13:44You know, I mean, I haven't had any nightmares the past few months.
00:13:47Mm-hmm.
00:13:49I feel like I can, I don't know, go about my business without looking in every direction for some guy creeping up behind me.
00:13:56And, I don't know, I can just breathe, I guess.
00:14:02You know, it's, little things.
00:14:05Not so little newsflash.
00:14:08I mean, your stalker actually made it into your house.
00:14:12That's terrifying.
00:14:16I know, I know.
00:14:18I just, um, I mean, sometimes I feel like maybe I, uh, overreacted.
00:14:22Your reaction was perfectly natural.
00:14:24I know, lots of people out there would have experienced some kind of breakdown from that.
00:14:29If you ask me, you're doing great.
00:14:34Thanks, Dr. Lewis.
00:14:37Thanks to you, you know.
00:14:40And, uh, and my family, of course.
00:14:42Hey, girlie.
00:14:59Hey, what's up, kid?
00:15:01I'm just waiting for Michael to come pick me up.
00:15:03We're gonna go grab a bite to eat.
00:15:04Oh?
00:15:04And who is this Michael person?
00:15:07He's my boo.
00:15:07Your boo?
00:15:09Is he a damn ghost or something?
00:15:12Mom, she's talking about her boyfriend.
00:15:15And I happen to like the kid.
00:15:18That must be him.
00:15:21Michael, you can come in.
00:15:22We're in the living room.
00:15:26There he is.
00:15:27Hey, what's up, James?
00:15:29Well, my spirits.
00:15:30Now I got my lovely mother here in one piece.
00:15:33Or two.
00:15:34How's it hanging, kid?
00:15:35I'm Maggie.
00:15:37Michael, and it's hanging just fine, I guess.
00:15:41Your mama actually allows you to have boys over when she's not home?
00:15:46I'm 19.
00:15:47Exactly my point.
00:15:48Like little rabbits at your age.
00:15:50Bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop.
00:15:52Oh, my God.
00:15:54Where is Kristen, anyway?
00:15:56She is at a therapy session.
00:15:58You gotta be kidding me.
00:15:59You know what we call therapy at my age?
00:16:03Sucking it up and walking it off
00:16:06Therapy
00:16:08It's like a weak sauce on a feeble sandwich
00:16:12It's a little harsh
00:16:14I don't think it's weird for her to get help after everything she's been through
00:16:18Oh?
00:16:19And what happened?
00:16:23Do you know what?
00:16:24I'm starving
00:16:25Should we go?
00:16:25Let's do this
00:16:26Hey Michael
00:16:27Come here
00:16:29I've got something to tell you
00:16:31Yeah, what's up?
00:16:38I've got to lean in if I'm going to tell you
00:16:40You're a strange one, Maggie
00:16:47Yeah, always have been
00:16:49Always will be
00:16:50Hey, come on, Michael
00:16:52Let's go
00:16:53You two have fun
00:16:59Bring me back some cheesecake
00:17:01So, Maggie
00:17:06She's a real kick in the ass, huh?
00:17:09Yeah, she is
00:17:10She's going to need to stop kicking at my mom
00:17:13Or we're going to have a pump
00:17:14How's your mom
00:17:16How's your mom been holding up with the new house guests anyways?
00:17:18She's struggling
00:17:19And I can tell, too
00:17:21And she was doing so well after everything that happened
00:17:23The last thing she needs is this lady picking at her
00:17:26Making her crazy
00:17:26Yeah
00:17:28Yeah
00:17:28Whoa, what's that face?
00:17:57I just barely avoided getting attacks in the parking lot.
00:17:59Oh, my God. Are you serious?
00:18:01Steve, do me a favor. You call building management.
00:18:04They really need to get out of the game and have security around here.
00:18:06I mean, that is unacceptable.
00:18:07Wow, you were really almost just attacked?
00:18:10I mean, I definitely saw someone following me.
00:18:13You mean towards the entrance to the building?
00:18:18Well, yeah.
00:18:21Well, how close did the guy get to you? Was he like a car in?
00:18:25No, no, not that close.
00:18:27I mean, as soon as I turned around, he took off.
00:18:30But that could have been for any number of reasons, right?
00:18:35Yeah, you're making valid points.
00:18:41Well, do you still want me to make that call?
00:18:44Yes.
00:18:45This is Kristen.
00:19:03Hello?
00:19:06Hello?
00:19:07Hello?
00:19:07Who is this?
00:19:32Stop calling me.
00:19:44Wow.
00:19:45Well, hello to you, too.
00:19:47Hi, James.
00:19:49Is everything okay?
00:19:51Yeah, yeah.
00:19:52I kept getting this unknown number, and then when I answered, no one was there.
00:19:56And you know what?
00:19:59Never mind.
00:20:00Everything's fine.
00:20:02Good.
00:20:03Well, Mara is out to dinner with Michael.
00:20:06I am done returning my client calls for the day, and it's just Mom and I here.
00:20:10We were wondering when you'd be coming home.
00:20:12I think she misses you already.
00:20:14Um, soon.
00:20:16Good.
00:20:18See you soon.
00:20:18Bye.
00:20:19Okay, bye.
00:20:38You can't be serious.
00:20:39It's not going to be for long, okay?
00:20:41Just a few months, max.
00:20:43A few months?
00:20:44Mara, I'm talking to two realtors who are looking for apartments for us right now in L.A.
00:20:49Well, Michael, I don't know what you want me to say, okay?
00:20:51I can't just leave her alone right now.
00:20:54She's a grown woman who can-
00:20:55Got the daylight scared out of her by some maniac at her spin class?
00:21:00Yeah, like a year ago.
00:21:04Oh.
00:21:05I'm sorry.
00:21:07I'm sorry.
00:21:07I'm sure it was a bad time.
00:21:09You have no idea.
00:21:10Okay.
00:21:11She was getting constant phone calls every single day.
00:21:14This psychopath was leaving these very disturbing messages talking about how they were soulmates
00:21:19and how they were meant to be together and she should just give in to fate.
00:21:22Oh.
00:21:23Calling her all the time.
00:21:25Following her everywhere she went, okay?
00:21:27He was popping up at places that she didn't even know she was going to be.
00:21:31I literally watched her fall apart.
00:21:34Jesus.
00:21:34You never talked about it much.
00:21:37I had no idea it was that frightening.
00:21:38The dude broke into our house and that's the night that she finally had her mental breakdown.
00:21:51Were you there at the time?
00:21:53When my mom needed me the most, I was at some stupid house party playing beer pong.
00:21:58You know, if I would have been there, who knows?
00:22:01Maybe I could have helped her keep it together.
00:22:04Mara, you can't blame yourself for that.
00:22:07Can't I?
00:22:08Just a little?
00:22:11I mean, I do feel responsible.
00:22:15That's why I've been sleeping at home again.
00:22:19Yeah.
00:22:20Don't remind me.
00:22:22Look, it's just going to be until things calm down, okay?
00:22:27So, whatever happened to that spin class stalker anyways?
00:22:31The police came, they carted him away, but...
00:22:34You know, unfortunately by then, some real damage had already been committed.
00:22:37And was she, like, committed?
00:22:41Yeah.
00:22:44Briefly.
00:22:45Just a couple of days, but...
00:22:47Since then, she's just been getting by with support from friends and family.
00:22:52Well, it's a good thing she has a daughter like you then.
00:22:53James was a really big help, too.
00:22:58Huh.
00:22:58Yeah, I like James.
00:23:00Me too.
00:23:01I don't know.
00:23:02There's always something different about him.
00:23:05You know, I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but...
00:23:07At least he's been a positive force in my mom's life.
00:23:16Hey, Maggie.
00:23:19Kristen.
00:23:19Kristen.
00:23:19You demolish any marriages today?
00:23:27No.
00:23:27Three or four.
00:23:28Unusual amount.
00:23:31What are you doing?
00:23:33Solving the conflicts in the Middle East.
00:23:35It's a lot harder than I thought.
00:23:37What does it look like I'm doing?
00:23:41Playing solitaire.
00:23:42Solitaire, I...
00:23:43I guess I just met.
00:23:46How's it going?
00:23:49What did you say the name of this game was again?
00:23:53Solitaire.
00:23:54And how many people usually play it at one time?
00:23:59Just...
00:23:59Just one.
00:24:01Huh.
00:24:01James said you were smart.
00:24:04Hmm.
00:24:05Where is James?
00:24:08I'm not really sure.
00:24:09Uh, he's...
00:24:11Doing some errands or something.
00:24:17What's wrong?
00:24:19You're looking a little frantic.
00:24:21No, I'm fine.
00:24:22It's just...
00:24:23What's the matter?
00:24:32You're not gonna answer it?
00:24:37Hello?
00:24:39Hello?
00:24:48Hello?
00:24:50No one there?
00:24:52No, there's not.
00:24:59No.
00:24:59No, you don't.
00:25:01No.
00:25:02Where are you rushing off to?
00:25:06I saw you!
00:25:09Hey, Mom, what's wrong?
00:25:18You hardly even touched your food.
00:25:21Oh, yeah, don't mind me.
00:25:22I'm just a little stressed out for some reason tonight.
00:25:26There's nothing wrong with that.
00:25:27No.
00:25:28No, of course not.
00:25:29Are you getting any more of those calls that we were talking about today?
00:25:37Are you?
00:25:37You know, I did.
00:25:42What calls are they talking about?
00:25:45I get unknown callers all the time.
00:25:47I mean, it could be anybody.
00:25:49For all we know, it could be just a super dedicated telemarketer.
00:25:53Yeah.
00:25:53I mean, it could be.
00:25:55Except, you know, a major part of telemarketing is actually talking to the person you're trying
00:25:59to reach.
00:25:59I don't know.
00:26:00I'm sure it's nothing.
00:26:02Well, if it's nothing, why did your lovely new bride race out into the backyard afterwards
00:26:07like her pants were on flipping fire?
00:26:10Mom, you did?
00:26:13You did that, babe?
00:26:15Why?
00:26:17I thought I saw somebody out there.
00:26:21And?
00:26:22And I was wrong.
00:26:26It's okay.
00:26:27It's really okay, Mom.
00:26:29Does all this have something to do with your breakdown last year?
00:26:36James told me that you came close to losing your marbles.
00:26:41I did not.
00:26:43I did not say that.
00:26:44Mom, would you please be interested in my daughter-in-law's life?
00:26:48I thought that's the reason why I came.
00:26:50It was for all of us to get to know each other.
00:26:53Well, you could be a little nicer.
00:26:55And I could be from Kalamazoo, but I'm not.
00:26:58I am who I am.
00:27:01One of the great benefits of getting to know each other, and believe me, there aren't many,
00:27:05is being able to say that and know for sure that it's 100% true.
00:27:13Look, I'm sorry.
00:27:16I didn't come here to be anyone's thorn.
00:27:21So if you want me to leave, I will.
00:27:28No, no, Maggie, I...
00:27:31I wouldn't have that.
00:27:34Hey, we're a...
00:27:35We're family now, right?
00:27:36Do I have the greatest wife, or what?
00:27:45Oh, you know, will you guys excuse me?
00:27:47Mom?
00:27:48No, Mara, I'm fine.
00:27:49I just need to get some fresh air.
00:27:51Do you want me to go...
00:27:52No, no, you guys, uh, just relax.
00:27:56I don't really blame her.
00:28:00It's a nice night out there.
00:28:01Hey, hey.
00:28:21Maggie, she's, uh...
00:28:24She's sick, Mara.
00:28:25We should be pitying her, not judging her.
00:28:28Well, we're not the one licking down our noses.
00:28:31Look, Mom, I know that I keep asking you this, but...
00:28:36Are you okay?
00:28:38Yeah, don't worry about me.
00:28:40That's not an answer.
00:28:42Okay, well, you know, for you it is.
00:28:46Look, I know I'm the reason that you put off your move with Michael.
00:28:49Mom.
00:28:49No, Mara, I don't want you putting your life on hold for me.
00:28:52Well, you know, I don't want you back in that place.
00:28:55Well, you say we, uh, go inside and show me some yellow mittels, huh?
00:29:03You want me to, you know...
00:29:05It's still cool to see you chill out?
00:29:06No.
00:29:07No.
00:29:09But I can show you how to do that.
00:29:10Good.
00:29:11Show me some cool water to steal.
00:29:13Oh, hey.
00:29:28Listen, I wanted to thank you for making the John Handicap Friendly.
00:29:31Maybe you could, uh, take a hint?
00:29:36Come again?
00:29:38Look, you could show a little bit more kindness around here.
00:29:42Okay?
00:29:44And as far as the bathroom upgrade goes, you can thank your son for that.
00:29:50Yeah, but I'm talking to you.
00:29:52And it seems like you have something to say.
00:29:56Is it about your mother?
00:29:57Maggie, my mom has done nothing but show kindness to you.
00:30:03Including giving you a room and a board.
00:30:07And, you know, I see her trying to make it work.
00:30:11She's not tough like you.
00:30:13And you see that, so I'm just...
00:30:16Honestly, I'm really not sure why you have to make it so hard on her.
00:30:20Well, you call it hard.
00:30:22I call it helpful.
00:30:23Yeah, the worst thing you can do is indulge someone's fantasies when they're not thinking straight.
00:30:33Fantasies?
00:30:34You think she's enjoying this?
00:30:37Oh, there you go, using the dirty definition.
00:30:40But when you actually break the word down,
00:30:43what it really means is that someone has seen something that's not there,
00:30:48due to a psychological need.
00:30:50So what are you saying?
00:30:51Well, I'm saying that's a good thing she's seeing a head doctor.
00:30:55Just saying.
00:30:58Look, I'm sorry, okay?
00:31:02I know how I can come off sometimes.
00:31:06But maybe if you just try to see the situation through my eyes,
00:31:12the way you're being protective of your mother,
00:31:16is kind of how I feel about my son.
00:31:19And I might not be around very much longer.
00:31:25In fact, it could be sooner than later.
00:31:28So I...
00:31:30I guess I'm...
00:31:32I'm just trying to make sure that she can do
00:31:35what needs to be done before I'm gone.
00:31:39I get it.
00:31:40I do, it's just...
00:31:42It's a lot.
00:31:44Yeah, so is a mother's love.
00:31:45Well, it's time for me to get to bed.
00:31:58You have a nice night now.
00:32:01Okay?
00:32:02Night.
00:32:03Night.
00:32:26Night.
00:32:27It's me, it's me.
00:32:55You should have a bad dream.
00:32:57I'm so sorry.
00:33:07I'm so sorry.
00:33:09I'm so sorry.
00:33:13I'm so sorry.
00:33:25I'm so sorry.
00:33:37Good morning, boss.
00:33:39Good morning.
00:33:40There you go.
00:33:42You look exhausted.
00:33:44Thanks, Steve.
00:33:45That was the look I was going for.
00:33:48Did Rebecca Palmer confirm for this morning?
00:33:51She should be here in a few minutes.
00:33:53Great.
00:33:54Just enough time to get caffeinated.
00:33:55Let me know when she arrives late.
00:33:56Sure thing.
00:33:57Oh, hey.
00:33:58I just spoke with the building manager.
00:34:00Oh, what do you say?
00:34:01Basically, he said he follows all the protocols in the book.
00:34:04But if you'd still like to make a formal complaint, you're more than welcome.
00:34:07No, that's okay.
00:34:08I feel like I'm making a mountain out of a molehill.
00:34:13So, let's just put it behind us.
00:34:15Sounds good to me.
00:34:17Hey, Steve.
00:34:35Yeah?
00:34:38Did my husband drop by here?
00:34:40Um, not that I know of.
00:34:42Why?
00:34:47Yes?
00:35:02Rebecca Palmer's here.
00:35:04Uh, thanks.
00:35:08You okay?
00:35:10Yeah, yeah.
00:35:11Can you show her in, please?
00:35:13All right.
00:35:15It's great to see you.
00:35:16Mm-hmm.
00:35:17How are you today?
00:35:18I, uh, am getting a big fat divorce.
00:35:20How good can I really be?
00:35:22All right.
00:35:23Well, let me see if I can make that a little easier for you.
00:35:26Well, uh, let me start with...
00:35:31Sorry, I should have this on silent.
00:35:33Yes, you should.
00:35:36It's been a bit hectic.
00:35:37My mother-in-law's been staying with us.
00:35:39It looks like someone really wants to talk to you.
00:35:44Hmm.
00:35:45Apparently.
00:35:50Uh, okay, so, um, were you able to get the property list together?
00:35:55Yes, I did.
00:35:56I-I-I emailed that to you three days ago.
00:35:59Right.
00:36:00Yes, of course you did.
00:36:05And maybe this is a bad time.
00:36:07No.
00:36:08No, no, no, no, no.
00:36:09I'm...
00:36:12Oh, my God.
00:36:15What?
00:36:16What is wrong?
00:36:17I'm-I'm sorry.
00:36:18Rebecca, will you excuse me for a minute, please?
00:36:36By the time I came back into my office, the client was already gone.
00:36:40Oh, God, what am I saying?
00:36:41She's probably an ex-client by now.
00:36:42I'm sorry that-that happened, Kristen, but, uh, this-this second stalker, don't you think that's unlikely, based on the odds of that kind of thing happening to someone twice?
00:36:55Lucky me, you know, two-time loser with guys who hide in bushes and terrorize women.
00:36:59Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
00:37:01Now, start from the beginning.
00:37:03Now, you received some calls from an unknown number, and no one was talking back to you.
00:37:07Right, and-and-and then there was somebody who was following me in the parking lot at work.
00:37:12And-and then outside of my house.
00:37:15And now you've received a rose, you said, that was left on your office desk this morning?
00:37:21And a text asking me if I liked it.
00:37:24Well, can I see that?
00:37:26Yeah.
00:37:28Damn it.
00:37:29What?
00:37:30I forgot. I was just freaked out when I saw the message. I deleted it.
00:37:33That's okay.
00:37:35Oh, God. I feel like I'm losing it again.
00:37:36Easy, easy.
00:37:37Now, last time we sat down, you said you were under extra pressure at home from your mother-in-law moving in.
00:37:45Maggie.
00:37:46You take it? Well, that's not going well.
00:37:48I mean, I get that she's sick, you know, and so I'm trying to just roll with it, but she is relentless in her passive, not-so-passive aggression towards me.
00:38:00And the timing on it all, it couldn't be more worse with this new situation.
00:38:07Do you think I'm going crazy again?
00:38:10A, you didn't last time, and I don't like that word.
00:38:13And B, no, but I think you're pushed pretty close to your limit right now.
00:38:18Now, how have you been sleeping?
00:38:21Not great.
00:38:22So you're tired. Your brain is playing little tricks on you, and those phone calls, those could be legitimate wrong numbers.
00:38:29Yeah, and the text that I can show you.
00:38:34And the roles, that could be James trying to surprise you, or, you know what, you could have a secret admirer out there somewhere trying to find a way to reach out.
00:38:41But, um, nothing wrong with being extra cautious. You see, these things keep happening.
00:38:46You call me, or call the police.
00:38:49So, Dr. Liz, you... you think I could have a stalker again?
00:39:19Wow. Look at you out here.
00:39:30What's next? You gonna clean out the gutters? Put a fresh coat of paint on the house?
00:39:35Yeah, I mean, that's me, Mr. Suburbia.
00:39:38I'm actually, I'm glad that you're here, and I wanted to talk to you.
00:39:43I'm concerned about your mother.
00:39:45Yeah, me too. That's actually why I wanted to talk to you.
00:39:51Oh, good. I mean, to me, it seems like she's kind of losing it a little, you know, mentally.
00:39:58Yeah, I see it too.
00:40:00Is this how she acted the last time with her breakdown?
00:40:03Yeah, I guess. To be honest, I wasn't paying as close attention to her as I should have at the time, you know, because I wasn't expecting it, but I am now.
00:40:16What about this stalker? I mean, do you, do you believe that she's actually being stalked by some guy?
00:40:23I think that she believes it. And, you know, it's putting her in a really bad spot.
00:40:28Yeah. Mentally.
00:40:29You don't have to talk to Maggie, James. She's making it worse.
00:40:34Yeah. My mom, she, she really knows how to push people's buttons. She is who she is.
00:40:41So she declares, look, if you can't control Maggie, I'm gonna have to convince my mom to kick yours out of the house.
00:40:49I know. I know it sounds harsh, but...
00:40:54I get it. Your mom's mental health is more important.
00:41:00Yeah, good. Great.
00:41:03Yeah. I'm glad we're on the same page with that.
00:41:05One hundred percent.
00:41:07Come here. Come here. We love you, James.
00:41:11I don't know if I ever really thanked you for making my mom so happy.
00:41:14Okay. Well, uh, I'll let you get back to it.
00:41:23Oh, you missed a spot.
00:41:28Good eye.
00:41:35Do we have a problem?
00:41:36It's time we go for a ride.
00:41:45Oh, I had a feeling.
00:41:47Oh.
00:42:01So you and the girls seem chummier than ever.
00:42:04And when I see you with the mother, I swear I can feel the love.
00:42:09So what's wrong with that?
00:42:11Look, we gotta stay focused.
00:42:13That's what I'm telling you.
00:42:14Whoa.
00:42:18This place is empty.
00:42:20Yeah.
00:42:21He's supposed to be meeting us here.
00:42:23Hey.
00:42:25Back here.
00:42:29So I had to start drinking.
00:42:31You know, trailing soccer moms all day.
00:42:33It's thirsty business.
00:42:35We didn't come here to drink with you, Max.
00:42:40What are you still doing with that stupid walker?
00:42:42Because you idiot.
00:42:45I can't risk anyone seeing me standing on my pins now, can I?
00:42:52Yeah, yeah.
00:42:54You told me that before.
00:42:55I still don't understand why you use that stupid thing.
00:42:56Because it makes me a sympathetic character.
00:42:57Even when I'm acting like a raging bitch.
00:42:58Well, why don't you just kill her with kindness?
00:42:59Because we're supposed to be gaslighting it.
00:43:00It's a delicate act of balance.
00:43:01See, how it works is, somebody, me, puts a target on their heels as much as possible.
00:43:02While someone else, him.
00:43:03Yeah.
00:43:04I hold their hand, look them in the eye.
00:43:05And I say, everything's gonna be all right, baby.
00:43:06Yeah.
00:43:07Yeah.
00:43:08I hold their hand, look them in the eye.
00:43:09And I say, everything's gonna be all right, baby.
00:43:10Yeah.
00:43:11Ooh.
00:43:12Get some spinning real good.
00:43:14Well, and then someone else comes along, me and
00:43:44and pushes them over the edge.
00:43:47Looks like someone's really enjoying themselves.
00:43:51That's funny, because I was about to say the same thing about you.
00:43:53Ah, guilty as charged.
00:43:57Okay, okay. So I get it.
00:43:59Good con, bad con. I get that whole thing.
00:44:03Why this lady?
00:44:04I came across this blog she wrote
00:44:07about her nervous breakdown last year.
00:44:09Here, some love-struck fool breaks into her house
00:44:14and drives her crazy.
00:44:16So, I hired this guy to help me double down on it.
00:44:21Yeah. Once we have it committed,
00:44:24I'll be in complete control of her finances.
00:44:28Won't take long. We'll have it transferred
00:44:29to an offshore account in the Caribbean.
00:44:32And what about the lady's daughter?
00:44:35Yeah, that's why we're here.
00:44:36The little brat is getting real protective.
00:44:41She'll get rid of us soon,
00:44:43if we don't get this done.
00:44:45And chances are she'll be successful.
00:44:49So, we gotta do this thing tonight.
00:44:54Right, son?
00:44:56Right, Mom.
00:44:56Mom, yoga's supposed to relax you.
00:45:08Not stress you out more.
00:45:12Honey, you and Michael are supposed to be leaving
00:45:15for LA next week.
00:45:16The move has been pushed back a few months,
00:45:18that's all.
00:45:18No, you mean your life is being delayed
00:45:20because of me.
00:45:21No, because, you know,
00:45:23there's been a whole lot of changes
00:45:24around here lately.
00:45:24Oh, sweetheart, I'm gonna be fine.
00:45:26I mean, I know Maggie can be tough,
00:45:28but I've got James to help me handle her.
00:45:31You know, he really does love me.
00:45:33I know.
00:45:34He would never do anything to hurt me.
00:45:36Yeah.
00:45:38Come on, let's take a break.
00:45:40I'm dying.
00:45:40Okay.
00:45:43Your job's done here, Max.
00:45:45It's time for you to get out of Dodge.
00:45:54Looks a little light.
00:45:57I told you the deal when I hired you.
00:46:00You get the rest
00:46:01when we all get ours.
00:46:13Fine.
00:46:13I don't want to be there tonight
00:46:15when it all goes down,
00:46:17because otherwise this whole thing
00:46:18has felt like a tease.
00:46:18Nah, that's a bad idea.
00:46:22See, first,
00:46:23you don't know the layout of the house.
00:46:25And second,
00:46:26you are a little too stimulated
00:46:28by this whole thing.
00:46:29And I haven't been pushing
00:46:31that flippin' walker
00:46:32for my health either.
00:46:35I need to push this snowflake
00:46:37over the edge tonight.
00:46:39And she cannot know
00:46:42that I am physically capable of it.
00:46:46So,
00:46:47you can't be anywhere near the house.
00:46:50In fact,
00:46:51I don't even want you in the same state.
00:46:56Okay.
00:46:58And I'm gonna need some more money.
00:47:01Up front.
00:47:02Not this when and if.
00:47:04The thing
00:47:04I'm talking about right now.
00:47:07You gotta be
00:47:11flippin' kidding me.
00:47:13It's like my drunk daddy
00:47:14used to say.
00:47:15A little leverage
00:47:16is better than any beverage.
00:47:23Huh?
00:47:24What do you say?
00:47:25Should we go to an ATM?
00:47:27Or what?
00:47:27Because you don't want
00:47:28to go back to prison.
00:47:29I know that.
00:47:30And you do not
00:47:31want me telling people
00:47:33what I know.
00:47:37Okay, Max.
00:47:40You win.
00:47:43Finish your drink.
00:47:45And we'll go get you
00:47:46your money.
00:47:51Dynamite.
00:47:56Dynamite.
00:47:56So,
00:48:01we two.
00:48:02You two ain't angry at me, right?
00:48:04Of course not, Max.
00:48:06Good,
00:48:07because you do the same
00:48:07you and me, right?
00:48:09Of course I would.
00:48:10Good.
00:48:11Because we're all
00:48:11just terrible people,
00:48:12right?
00:48:13Well, we have to be.
00:48:14We'll go get you.
00:48:34I don't know.
00:49:04I don't know.
00:49:34Hey, you love birds.
00:49:45I'm turning in.
00:49:47Okay, Mom.
00:49:50Good night.
00:49:51Yeah, sleep tight.
00:49:53Hey, honey.
00:49:56Thank you for everything.
00:49:58I mean it.
00:50:00Oh, thank you, Maggie.
00:50:02That means a lot to me.
00:50:15I'm going to bed.
00:50:17I'm exhausted.
00:50:18Ah, me too.
00:50:20Yeah.
00:50:21Well, see you in the morning, okay?
00:50:24I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:27Night, Maggie.
00:50:27I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:28I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:29I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:30I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:31I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:32I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:33I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:34I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:35I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:36I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:37I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:38I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:39I'll be out before my head hits the pillow.
00:50:40I don't know.
00:51:10I don't know.
00:51:40I don't know.
00:52:10I don't know.
00:52:40I can't believe your mom was actually nice to me tonight.
00:52:50I told you.
00:52:53She really likes you.
00:52:56Hmm.
00:52:58Yeah, you know, I'm going to make more of an effort with her.
00:53:01That's incredible, considering that she hasn't even met you halfway.
00:53:05Mom, I swear I'm going to make her love me, even if it kills me.
00:53:09Good night, baby.
00:53:18Sweet dreams.
00:53:22Yeah.
00:53:23Yeah.
00:53:38Yeah.
00:53:38Sweet dreams.

00:57:36No, no, no, no.
00:57:37It's me.
00:57:38No, no, no, no.
00:57:40There's no one in the house.
00:57:41There's no way.
00:57:42It's just me.
00:57:42It's just me.
00:57:43Look at me.
00:57:43Look at me.
00:57:44Look at me.

00:57:45It's just me.
00:57:46It's okay.

00:57:49What is in the house?
00:57:50No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:58:03Hi, Denise.
00:58:08I was going to call you.
00:58:10How's Kristen Walker doing?
00:58:12I'm looking at her right now.
00:58:14She's actually very calm.
00:58:15I really like her.
00:58:17Yeah, me too.
00:58:18thanks for squeezing her in I'd hate for her to have to spend another stay in a
00:58:22mental hospital even for a few days it was a close call I know she needs a lot
00:58:28of help Denise I know well she's gonna be evaluated again next week by the state
00:58:34but I'm feeling pretty confident we should get her home by the end of the
00:58:36month from your mouth the God's ears actually from your mouth you're the one
00:58:40that talks him through these things I just give him a place to stay and bless
00:58:44you for that oh um Cheryl I gotta go yeah I'll check with you later hi damn it
00:58:55will you calm down calm down where did this halfway house for crazies come from
00:59:01and they were supposed to to commit her yeah and you are the one that said they
00:59:06would do that oh damn it all right I said we find a way to take her out while she's
00:59:11there you're the husband you should get the money we are crooks we're not
00:59:16murderers and sometimes we do both or did I just dream about what happened at that
00:59:21bar mr. Stabby that was necessary this is not I'm sorry I have to ask but this the
00:59:28second stalker you think this is like a real thing I don't know but they can't
00:59:34find any evidence of someone breaking in or leaving the house so all I know is that
00:59:39that my mom was doing a lot better before Maggie got here the timing of all
00:59:42this it could be coincidental but well do you have any pictures of James and his
00:59:47mother actually yeah I do oh text her to me will you yeah
00:59:55you know you got me confused again one more time did you come into this woman's life to love her
01:00:14or to rob her don't worry about me I'm a pro okay but we do not need to hurt these
01:00:23people let's say that I agree with you there are too many other people in that
01:00:27support house we don't know the floor plan all right fine but if I see you siding with
01:00:34them instead of us all bets are off all right big shot so what in the hell do we do now we wait till
01:00:44she comes back here and we turn up the gas damn it you gotta be kidding me and what do we do with
01:00:51Mara in the meantime I don't know maybe it's time that we try Max's kill him with kindness routine
01:00:58fine as long as she's not on to us question is what are you prepared to do if she is
01:01:07yes it's me come in you see what I did I called first so I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks
01:01:20I'll keep that in mind but um what if I need you for some of your old tricks oh real dog doesn't
01:01:29forget the old stuff what do you got if I text you um some pictures you think you can find out what
01:01:34you can about a couple of people I mean I'll I'll owe you one and considering what you owe me well I
01:01:42don't mind you owe me one those are some of my favorite nights Denise don't start all right text me
01:01:48to pics I'll get right on it maybe dangerous or even life-threatening family history may increase
01:02:10likelihood in some cases a combination of medications can work better anyone with this
01:02:15disease will need lifelong insulin therapy
01:02:45so
01:02:48so
01:02:52so
01:02:54so
01:02:55so
01:02:57so
01:03:29You need something?
01:03:46No. No, sorry. My toilet's clogged, so I just figured I would use the one in here. Do you mind?
01:03:53Mind? It's your house, girly. You can tinkle anywhere you like.
01:03:57Tinkle. It's funny. I'll catch you later, Maggie.
01:04:02You sure you don't want me to come? I know how hard this must be on you.
01:04:17It's a keg walk compared to what she's going through.
01:04:20Thank you for driving me. I'm just a little shaky.
01:04:24Anybody would be. James didn't want to come?
01:04:28I didn't tell him I was coming. I just... I want to talk to her about last night, alone. I know that you like James.
01:04:36Hey, Mar, I barely know the guy. And quite honestly, nothing's been the same ever since his mom moved in.
01:04:43Yeah. Speaking of mothers...
01:04:47Good luck in there.
01:04:57You must be Mara.
01:04:58Cheryl.
01:04:58Come on in. How's she doing?
01:05:00She's a little out of it because of the medication, but better overall than you're probably thinking.
01:05:05Okay. Has she talked about what happened?
01:05:06No, but she hasn't said much of anything since she got here. Something tells me she'll be really happy to see you.
01:05:12Kristen, you have a visitor.
01:05:14Mom.
01:05:15Hi, sweetheart.
01:05:16Hi, Mom.
01:05:17I'll let you two catch up. I'll be in the kitchen if you need me for anything.
01:05:20Thanks, Cheryl.
01:05:21Mm-hmm.
01:05:21Honey, I'm okay. Okay, I'm fine. Really, I just... I had a bad night.
01:05:28I'm so sorry.
01:05:29No.
01:05:30I can't believe I slept through it again. I let you down again.
01:05:33No. No, you didn't. And I am not sorry. You can't. I don't want you to see me like that.
01:05:40Yeah.
01:05:41Can you tell me what happened?
01:05:44Yeah.
01:05:44I woke up because I thought I heard something, but then I listened and there was nothing there.
01:05:56So I... I tried to go back to sleep, but I couldn't.
01:06:01And so I figured I would just go online.
01:06:04And I... I realized that my phone was in the kitchen.
01:06:08So I went downstairs.
01:06:10And I saw that the door was open.
01:06:13So I... I... I called 9-1-1.
01:06:16And then I... I went into the entryway and he darted past me.
01:06:21So you actually saw someone?
01:06:23I... I... I think so.
01:06:25I... I mean, it was this shadow.
01:06:28At least, Mara, I swear to you, trust me, there was somebody in there with me.
01:06:32I believe you, but...
01:06:35You know, is there any way that the person you saw could have been James or Maggie?
01:06:38I mean, no. James was asleep.
01:06:40And... I... Maggie can't even get around.
01:06:43She... she couldn't have done that.
01:06:45So either I... I do have a new guy following me, which, like, there's no evidence of except my word.
01:06:53Or, you know, I'm, um...
01:06:56I'm losing my mind.
01:06:59No.
01:07:00Mom, you're not.
01:07:01Okay.
01:07:02We're gonna figure this out.
01:07:03Together.
01:07:04I promise you, we will figure this out.
01:07:06Mara, I'm sorry.
01:07:07I'm so sorry.
01:07:09I'm so sorry.
01:07:10Mom, don't be sorry.
01:07:12Please.
01:07:13We're gonna figure it out, okay?
01:07:14Promise.
01:07:15I love you.
01:07:16I love you.
01:07:26Hey.
01:07:27You okay, Mara?
01:07:28Yeah.
01:07:30It's just really hard to see her like that.
01:07:32Come on.
01:07:33Let's get out of here.
01:07:34Okay.
01:07:34Okay.
01:07:55Come on.
01:07:56A little faster, please.
01:08:04I'm gonna be collecting my pension by the time we get there.
01:08:11Next time, I'm the invalid.
01:08:13Yeah.
01:08:14All right, by me.
01:08:26So, what happened?
01:08:39Well, I mean, she had a breakdown.
01:08:43You know, a mental one.
01:08:45Mm-hmm.
01:08:46While you were...
01:08:47I was sleeping.
01:08:48I mean, I was sleeping at first, until she started screaming.
01:08:52She was screaming so loud.
01:08:53I rushed down as fast as I could, but she'd already called the police by that point, and
01:08:58she was totally hysterical.
01:09:00There was nothing I could do.
01:09:00And you?
01:09:03You just...
01:09:04You slept through the whole thing?
01:09:07Oh.
01:09:08Well, same as you, dear.
01:09:10I always sleep like a log.
01:09:12I don't.
01:09:13Ever.
01:09:14But I guess the insulin helps you sleep.
01:09:17Because you take it every day, right?
01:09:19That's right.
01:09:20I've just never seen you take it.
01:09:22Oh, well, you think I poke myself in the living room between commercial breaks on the TV?
01:09:31No.
01:09:33I do it in my room alone.
01:09:38I went to see her today.
01:09:40I know.
01:09:41How do you know?
01:09:43Well, because I called the recovery house.
01:09:45I spoke to this very nice woman, um, Cheryl is her name.
01:09:49Mm-hmm.
01:09:49Yeah, she seemed very kind.
01:09:51Yeah, she is.
01:09:51I thought today might be too soon to go see her, so I called over there to ask Cheryl
01:09:56when I could spend a couple hours with my wife.
01:09:59She suggested that I come by tomorrow morning.
01:10:02Oh, you're such a sweet boy.
01:10:05A sweet boy who lets his mother run all over his newlywed wife.
01:10:09Mara, I did not do that.
01:10:12Yeah, you did.
01:10:12That's not very nice.
01:10:14And you have the nerve to call it some sort of tragic play?
01:10:18You're the one who's helping her write the damn thing.
01:10:19I have no idea what you're talking about.
01:10:22Hmm.
01:10:23Really?
01:10:24Pushing her a little here.
01:10:26Pushing her a little there.
01:10:28Making her uncomfortable in her own home.
01:10:30Look, Mara, I understand that you're upset.
01:10:33We all are upset.
01:10:35Oh, really?
01:10:36Because you guys don't seem upset at all.
01:10:38Flipping kids these days, I swear.
01:10:42Hey, what happened to having some respect for your elders?
01:10:47You say respect like you have one ounce of it.
01:10:51You know, this is a joke.
01:10:53I'm going to stay with Michael until we figure out what it is that we need to do.
01:10:59Don't you want anything to eat?
01:11:00Lost my flippin' appetite.
01:11:06So how do you think this is going?
01:11:08I'm going to stay with Michael until we figure out what it is that we need to do.
01:11:38I'm going to stay with Michael until we figure out what it is.
01:12:08I'm going to stay with Michael until we figure out what it is.
01:12:38I'm going to stay with Michael until we figure out what it is.
01:12:40I'm going to stay with Michael until we figure out what it is.
01:12:40We make it up.
01:12:41We make it up.
01:12:41We make it up.
01:12:54Hey Ross, getting back to you on that photo.
01:13:13Names you gave me don't match the ones I found.
01:13:15And it gets worse.
01:13:17Both have been arrested in the past separately for running cons down south.
01:13:20Give me a call back.
01:13:21I'll tell you what I know.
01:13:24This is Denise Lewis.
01:13:30I can't take your call right now.
01:13:32Leave me a message and I'll get back to you just as soon as I can.
01:13:35If it's an emergency, call 911.
01:13:38Denise, here's your emergency.
01:13:41My deep dive guy got back to me.
01:13:43Those people, Maggie and James, they're not who they say they are.
01:13:48They could be dangerous.
01:13:50So call me when you get this.
01:13:52Two questions.
01:13:55What are you doing in our house?
01:13:57And what exactly do you mean by dangerous?
01:14:00I know what you and your son are doing here, lady.
01:14:03Are you sure about that?
01:14:04Maybe you should ask him.
01:14:06So what is this now?
01:14:19This?
01:14:20This is your plan going from bad to worse.
01:14:22I mean, he said we're not who we say we are, dummy.
01:14:26I mean, who's he talking to?
01:14:29Kristen Shrink.
01:14:30Oh, damn it, Hulk.
01:14:35Izzy?
01:14:36Yeah.
01:14:37I had to.
01:14:38I had no choice.
01:14:39Well, what the hell are we going to do now?
01:14:41I don't know, Maggie.
01:14:43This is your plan.
01:14:44I know that.
01:14:45All right, what we need to do is we'll just...
01:14:48Oh, just shut up.
01:14:50Shut up.
01:14:52Okay, we pack our stuff and we get as much distance between us and here by dawn.
01:15:01Okay?
01:15:02Agreed.
01:15:03We're just lucky that little bitch isn't around right now.
01:15:06Get home safe, Philip.
01:15:34I'll see you next week.
01:15:35Sure thing.
01:15:36Oh.
01:15:37Oh.
01:15:38Oh.
01:15:39Oh.
01:15:40Oh.
01:15:41Oh.
01:15:42Denise, here's your emergency.
01:15:43My deep dive guy got back to me.
01:15:45Those people, Maggie and James, they're not who they say they are.
01:15:48They could be dangerous.
01:15:49Oh my god.
01:15:50Um.
01:15:51Oh.
01:15:52Denise, hi.
01:15:53You're on speaker.
01:15:54How's Kristen?
01:15:55She's gut, keeping mostly to her south, but peaceful enough considering the last couple
01:16:05of days.
01:16:06Just listen to me.
01:16:07I got a message from my ex.
01:16:09This patient of mine and her daughter, they're in real trouble with these people.
01:16:14What did he say?
01:16:15Well, I don't know the details, but he's a private investigator.
01:16:16He was looking into the husband and the mother and he said they're not who they say they
01:16:22are.
01:16:23Wait.
01:16:24What?
01:16:25Oh my god.
01:16:26What?
01:16:27Oh my god.
01:16:28I just want to get my mom's jewelry box and get out of here.
01:16:41Come on.
01:16:57Yes, that will be a trip.
01:17:00Yes, that will be fine.
01:17:14Are they both home?
01:17:16Yeah, I think so.
01:17:18All right, so let's go out there, grab our jewelry box, and get the hell out of here.
01:17:22No, I'll go grab it really quick.
01:17:23You just stay here, and then we'll go together.
01:17:25Okay, well, you should hurry.
01:17:27Oh, really?
01:17:27Because I was going to make a quick sandwich first.
01:17:29This is you hurrying.
01:17:59Shh, go to sleep, kid.
01:18:01Go to sleep.
01:18:02Come on.
01:18:03Come on.
01:18:03Come on.
01:18:04Come on.
01:18:05Come on.
01:18:06Come on.
01:18:07Come on.
01:18:08Come on.
01:18:09Come on.
01:18:14Come on.
01:18:15Come on.
01:18:45Where the hell are you? We gotta hit the road.
01:18:56You can walk.
01:19:01It's a miracle.
01:19:03It was you. You and James the entire time. Messing with my mom, making her crazy.
01:19:09First of all, girly, that's not our names.
01:19:12And second, it didn't really take that much effort.
01:19:17Only problem was, we didn't go far enough.
01:19:21But those days are over.
01:19:24What do you mean?
01:19:26Why did you have to come back tonight?
01:19:29Get away from her.
01:19:31It's too late for that.
01:19:33No, it's not. We're gonna tie her up, and we're gonna get in the car, and you and I will be drinking margaritas on the beach in Mexico before anybody knows about this.
01:19:42Who put you in charge?
01:19:43I have made myself clear from the start, Jackie. I do not want either one of them hurt.
01:19:48And I've made myself clear I'm not going back to prison.
01:19:53Oh, now look what you did.
01:19:55I'll get her.
01:19:56You idiot!
01:20:23Lara?
01:20:23Lara?
01:20:26Lara?
01:20:28Come on.
01:20:30I'm trying to help you.
01:20:36Michael!
01:20:38Michael!
01:20:40Michael!
01:20:42Michael!
01:20:43Michael!
01:20:44Michael, we gotta go!
01:20:46What?
01:20:48Looks like your boo got himself a boo-boo.
01:20:51Stand up, girly.
01:20:54Real slow.
01:20:56I know it's a shame.
01:21:01There's something about your spirit I kind of like.
01:21:05Even if you were a pain in my ass at every flip and turn.
01:21:09Lara!
01:21:10Lara!
01:21:11Get away from me!
01:21:13Oh, finally, something goes right on this job.
01:21:16No!
01:21:18You fucking fool!
01:21:19Why didn't you do that?
01:21:21Why didn't you do that?
01:21:21Screw this family!
01:21:30Mom!
01:21:31What are you doing here?
01:21:33Oh, God, I heard you're in trouble.
01:21:34Are you okay?
01:21:35I'm okay.
01:21:35I'm okay.
01:21:37What the hell happened here?
01:21:38It was Maggie.
01:21:43It's not her name.
01:21:45It's Jackie.
01:21:46Where's Jackie now?
01:21:48She left the house.
01:21:49Oh, come here.
01:21:54I'm so glad you two are here.
01:22:03We are, too.
01:22:04Believe me.
01:22:06Yeah, we kind of need to get out of the house these days anyways.
01:22:08Mm-hmm.
01:22:10Mara's putting her plans on hold a little while longer, but this time I'm not complaining.
01:22:15Neither is my boyfriend.
01:22:17He's being a saint about all of this.
01:22:19Oh, I hear that.
01:22:22Didn't you say I'm so sorry about your ex's passing?
01:22:24You mean his murder.
01:22:27Oh, imagine how sorry you'd feel if you were the reason that he's dead.
01:22:31Come on, don't say that.
01:22:33I'm not.
01:22:34It's true whether I say it out loud or not.
01:22:36Have the police been able to tell you anything else?
01:22:40Well, um, James' real name is Paul Northcutt.
01:22:46I know this sounds crazy, but he was conning you out of every dime you had, Mom?
01:22:53Okay, yes, Mara, he was, but he also saved my life.
01:22:56Mm-hmm.
01:22:58I mean, he couldn't have been all that bad.
01:23:00And, um, Maggie?
01:23:02You mean Jackie Turner?
01:23:04Yes.
01:23:04According to Ross's guy, she's been arrested a few times, mostly for short-term cons with James and some with others, but she's a lot more dangerous than her rap she'd hinted at.
01:23:16And we have no idea where she is now.
01:23:19I'm sure she's still out there, just running the same game on another unsuspecting family.
01:23:24Well, she can't hide forever.
01:23:25Would you look at this place?
01:23:32It's enormous.
01:23:36You're looking a little nervous.
01:23:38Are you all right?
01:23:39Maybe I am.
01:23:40A little.
01:23:40I need this to go right.
01:23:44Well, don't worry, honey.
01:23:46Mama's here.
01:23:48I'm gonna make sure that man in there is yours.
01:23:52All yours.
01:23:53And soon.
01:23:55Okay.
01:23:55Okay.
01:23:55Okay.
01:23:55Okay.
01:23:55Okay.
01:24:10Hi, I'm Stephanie.
01:24:12I'm Bridget.
01:24:12Yes.
01:24:13Landon's mentioned you.
01:24:14Well, he's mentioned you as well.
01:24:16This is my mother, Christine.
01:24:18Hi.
01:24:19Hello.
01:24:19Well, please, come on in.
01:24:23And I'm gonna go get Landon for you.
01:24:27Make yourselves at home.
01:24:29You don't have to tell us twice.
01:24:31Wow.
01:24:32You don't have to tell us twice.
01:25:19Bye.
01:25:30Bye.
