00:00:00My life was perfect.
00:00:27I had an incredible mom who loved me.
00:00:30I was her princess, and she kept me safe from everything.
00:00:35The only pain I ever knew was when I tripped and skinned my knee, but my mom was always
00:00:40there to make it all better.
00:00:42Dad left before I was born, so it's always just been me and her, and it always would
00:00:47be.
00:00:54I actually believed that, until two years later when I learned what pain really was.
00:01:00The day my mom left, too.
00:01:07That funeral was way too long.
00:01:09She didn't do squat with her life, you'd think that they could have shortened all that talk.
00:01:13I'm hungry.
00:01:14Oh, I know.
00:01:15The food was terrible.
00:01:16Let's go see what we have in the fridge.
00:01:17Here's your room.
00:01:26Our neighbor's grandmother died, so they gave us her bed, so you be sure to be grateful.
00:01:30Okay.
00:01:31I know it's a little plain right now, but tomorrow morning we'll talk to Uncle David
00:01:39and see what he thinks about letting you decorate a little bit.
00:01:41How's that?
00:01:42Won't that be nice?
00:01:45Okay.
00:01:47Look, I understand that your mom just died, but I will not have you moping around.
00:01:52You will have chores to do and you'll be expected to help around the house.
00:01:56Okay.
00:01:57And you will be keeping this room clean.
00:01:59You're ten years old, there's no excuse for messiness.
00:02:02Okay.
00:02:03All right, well, we will talk about your chores in the morning.
00:02:07Good night.
00:02:08Good night.
00:02:39Well, Mrs. Wickens, I can't stay in bed all day.
00:02:51Time to get up.
00:02:55Mom, my phone screen cracked.
00:02:58Well, honey, get a new one right after school.
00:03:02Caitlin, you want it?
00:03:04Ew, no.
00:03:06Can I have it?
00:03:10Indy, hurry up.
00:03:13I have an early morning meeting today.
00:03:16Sorry.
00:03:25Bye, girls.
00:03:26Have a great day.
00:03:27Oh, I'm going shopping with Jada after.
00:03:30Okay.
00:03:31Have a great time.
00:03:36Good morning, Mrs. Whitman.
00:03:39Good morning.
00:03:43This is life.
00:03:46Every school has their social stereotypes, like the band geeks, the jocks, the underachievers.
00:03:52I guess I fit in with the too normal to classify kids.
00:03:56Certainly not with the popular crowd.
00:03:59I'll leave that to Bryant Bailey.
00:04:02Ugh, so annoying.
00:04:06Some girls throw themselves at Bryant all the time, and I really don't understand it.
00:04:11Jada and Caitlin especially.
00:04:13But there's a lot I don't get about them.
00:04:16That one's Bryant's sister Mackenzie.
00:04:18I don't know her, but she seems decent.
00:04:21At least she has a reason to be around Bryant.
00:04:25Moving on, then.
00:04:27It's class after class.
00:04:30History, English, and P.E.
00:04:36Ugh, how I hate P.E.
00:04:41And I get this every day.
00:04:46They get to eat out every day, but Clarice never gives me money for that.
00:04:51And that's Maxton.
00:04:54He keeps me sane, as best friends should.
00:04:59And that's my life, day in and day out.
00:05:05Isn't it grand?
00:05:11I mean, it's not perfect, but whose life is?
00:05:18Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if Mom were still alive.
00:05:23With her, I felt my life was perfect.
00:05:30This is awful.
00:05:32You must have learned to cook from your mother.
00:05:37But after she died, I didn't expect that to stay the same.
00:05:41But I also didn't expect it to get worse.
00:05:53Come on, Jada, we're gonna be late.
00:05:55I'm coming.
00:06:03No!
00:06:07I'm so sorry.
00:06:10I didn't mean to. I didn't even...
00:06:16I'm so sorry.
00:06:23It was fabulous of you to stop by the other day, Brian.
00:06:27Yeah, you should come by more often.
00:06:29I didn't stop by. I hit Indy's cat.
00:06:32I totally forgot about that.
00:06:35Hey, Indy.
00:06:36Stop, he's gonna see me.
00:06:39Is he looking?
00:06:40Uh, yeah, he's coming this way.
00:06:42Indy!
00:06:44Let's go.
00:06:45I didn't get my stuff! Wait!
00:06:48Bye, Brian.
00:06:51And there's my son.
00:06:52Hey, Brian.
00:06:53Thanks for stopping by, Dr. Bailey.
00:06:55I'll get those sessions with the students scheduled right away.
00:06:58Thank you.
00:07:00So, how'd it go?
00:07:01Great, great.
00:07:02Yeah, I've got several patients that come to the school,
00:07:04and now I can hold counseling sessions here
00:07:06without them missing too much class time.
00:07:08Cool.
00:07:09Speaking of which, shouldn't you be...
00:07:12Indy!
00:07:15What's going on?
00:07:17That's her.
00:07:18The one who owned the cat.
00:07:20Oh.
00:07:21Yeah, she's avoiding me.
00:07:23Yes, I see that.
00:07:25Hey, it'll be all right.
00:07:27She'll eventually hear you out.
00:07:29All right, see you, Dad.
00:07:33Hey, Indy.
00:07:34Hey, Dad.
00:07:35Hey, Indy.
00:07:36Hey, Dad.
00:07:37Hey, Dad.
00:07:38Hey, Dad.
00:07:39Hey, Dad.
00:07:40Hey, Dad.
00:07:42Are you ever going to let Brian apologize?
00:07:45I can't run and talk at the same time.
00:07:49That's not an answer.
00:07:51Why should I?
00:07:52It would only give him a clearer conscience.
00:07:55Yeah, you're above that whole forgiveness nonsense.
00:07:57Right.
00:07:59No, that's not...
00:08:00Oh, jeez.
00:08:01You all right?
00:08:03Karma hates me.
00:08:05What are you doing here?
00:08:07Being a gentleman and helping you up.
00:08:09Little heads up next time.
00:08:11Sorry.
00:08:12We still have class.
00:08:14Hey, are you just going to keep blowing me off?
00:08:17What more do you expect?
00:08:19I just want to make it up to you one day.
00:08:21The best way to make it up to me is to leave me alone.
00:08:25Wait.
00:08:29Please.
00:08:30No.
00:08:31No.
00:08:32No.
00:08:33No.
00:08:35Please forgive me, Indy.
00:08:37Before you killed my cat, you hadn't even said two words to me.
00:08:41And now you expect me to be nice?
00:08:44No.
00:08:45Brian, I won't forgive you.
00:08:47That cat was the last gift I got from my mom before she died.
00:08:51So please, leave me alone.
00:08:56I don't want your pity.
00:08:59All right, Dad.
00:09:00It's your turn to cook tomorrow.
00:09:02Already?
00:09:03No takeout, though.
00:09:04Why not?
00:09:05Yeah, why not?
00:09:06Because.
00:09:07We need to eat a little healthier.
00:09:09And that's your cop-out every time it's your turn to cook.
00:09:12Hey, I'm the doctor.
00:09:13I say it's healthy.
00:09:14You're not that type of doctor.
00:09:20What's up, Brian?
00:09:22Just thinking.
00:09:23Everything all right?
00:09:25Yeah.
00:09:27Just thinking.
00:09:28Everything all right?
00:09:29That girl that I told you about.
00:09:31Ooh.
00:09:32What's her name?
00:09:33Okay.
00:09:34Shoo, shoo.
00:09:35Both of you.
00:09:36Sweet.
00:09:37All right.
00:09:39The one with the cat?
00:09:41Yeah.
00:09:42Indy Zimmerman.
00:09:45I'm not sure I'm ever going to be able to apologize without her throwing something at me.
00:09:49The cat was a gift from her mom before her mom died.
00:09:53Zimmerman.
00:09:54Indy.
00:09:55Or is it Cindy?
00:09:58She lost her mother a few years back, right?
00:10:01I don't know when.
00:10:03How do you know?
00:10:04Okay.
00:10:05Have a seat.
00:10:06Come on.
00:10:08Maybe if you know a little bit more about her, it'll help you apologize.
00:10:12Be a friend for her.
00:10:18Indy!
00:10:19Get down here!
00:10:25Indy!
00:10:26What is taking so long?
00:10:28Get down here now!
00:10:30I don't know.
00:10:33Cindy Ella Zimmerman.
00:10:35If you don't get your butt down here this second, you'll be grounded again!
00:10:41What is wrong with you?
00:10:44It is not a holiday.
00:10:45There is no breakfast downstairs.
00:10:47David has work.
00:10:48The girls have school.
00:10:49And I have people coming over for a presentation at three.
00:10:54Remember!
00:10:55My head is killing me.
00:10:58So you expect us to eat cereal?
00:11:01I'm sorry.
00:11:02I just don't feel very good right now.
00:11:07You look awful too.
00:11:10Maybe I don't want you spreading around whatever disease it is you've got.
00:11:14Especially since I'm doing a presentation on essential oils.
00:11:20Okay.
00:11:21Alright.
00:11:23We'll have cereal.
00:11:24We'll just have the girls hide the mess and you can deal with it later.
00:11:30Hey, isn't this Jada's shirt?
00:11:33There was a stain on it.
00:11:35She said she didn't want it anymore.
00:11:37Well, you didn't work very hard to get this out in the laundry.
00:11:41Get it out and get it back to Jada.
00:11:53Hey, Maxson.
00:11:54Oh, hey.
00:11:55What's up?
00:11:56Do you need something?
00:11:57Uh, yeah.
00:11:58I was just looking for Indy.
00:11:59Do you know where she is?
00:12:00She wasn't at school today.
00:12:01I think she's at home.
00:12:02She texted me earlier that she had a killer headache.
00:12:05Oh.
00:12:06That makes sense.
00:12:07Why, she's not at your game too then, huh?
00:12:09Uh, no.
00:12:10That's actually pretty normal.
00:12:11Her aunt is.
00:12:12I mean, I don't know.
00:12:13I don't know.
00:12:14I don't know.
00:12:15I don't know.
00:12:16I don't know.
00:12:17I don't know.
00:12:18I don't know.
00:12:19I don't know.
00:12:20I don't know.
00:12:21I don't know.
00:12:23Well, her aunt and uncle are kind of strict.
00:12:26Ugh.
00:12:27You still trying to talk to her?
00:12:28Uh, yeah.
00:12:29Yeah.
00:12:30Sorry, dude.
00:12:31Mrs. Wiggins was.
00:12:32Wiggins?
00:12:33Her cat.
00:12:34Oh.
00:12:35Yeah.
00:12:36Anyway, uh, special cat.
00:12:37Yeah, I got that.
00:12:38All right.
00:12:39Thanks, Maxson.
00:12:40Indy loves company.
00:12:41Her room is up here.
00:12:42Indy, are you there?
00:12:43I've got something that will cheer her up.
00:12:44Indy.
00:12:45Indy.
00:12:46Indy.
00:12:47Indy.
00:12:48Indy.
00:12:49Indy.
00:12:50Indy.
00:12:51Indy.
00:12:52Sure, I will cheer you up.
00:12:56How are you feeling, sweetheart?
00:12:59I'm actually a lot better now that I slept.
00:13:04Hey.
00:13:05What in the world are you doing here?
00:13:10Look who it is.
00:13:11It's the boy who killed your cat!
00:13:13And he wants to apologize and he has a present for you.
00:13:18Isn't he the sweetest?
00:13:19Very.
00:13:20Well, I still have guests downstairs, so...
00:13:23Oh, that's so sweet.
00:13:27What are you doing here?
00:13:29I knew you'd say no, so I just came without asking.
00:13:32Caught that part.
00:13:34What do you want?
00:13:36I'd like us to be friends.
00:13:38No.
00:13:40Look, do you have something against guy friends?
00:13:42Of course not.
00:13:44Maxine's my best friend.
00:13:48Look, I know you're only trying to be my friend out of pity,
00:13:52and I don't want that.
00:13:54I want genuine friends.
00:13:58Well, I'm genuinely worried about you.
00:14:01Can't that be a start?
00:14:03You are no more worried about me than my aunt and uncle are.
00:14:10What's in the bag?
00:14:12Smells good.
00:14:14This? Just a little peace offering.
00:14:19Food?
00:14:20Captain Jack's famous burger.
00:14:22You're kidding.
00:14:24And there's fries as well.
00:14:29I knew I'd get on your good side eventually.
00:14:32Don't push it. I'm starving.
00:14:35Why are you here?
00:14:37Well, besides feeling bad about, you know, hitting your cat, I...
00:14:41Murdering.
00:14:43Murdered my cat.
00:14:45Besides feeling bad about murdering your cat,
00:14:50I don't know why I'm here.
00:14:53I just feel like this is where I need to be, so here I am.
00:14:57And maybe you need me.
00:14:59Great. Now I'm just terrified.
00:15:02Just hear me out.
00:15:04This has absolutely nothing to do with me.
00:15:08If you need to come here to feel better about killing my cat, then sure.
00:15:12You can hate yourself and show up, I guess.
00:15:14But to say that this is for me?
00:15:17That's where I'll call you on it.
00:15:20If this had anything to do with me, you would leave me alone.
00:15:25Okay.
00:15:27You're right.
00:15:29Maybe I need you.
00:15:32Look, can we just go on a walk or something?
00:15:36Why?
00:15:38Fresh air.
00:15:42I don't think I can. I have chores.
00:15:45Clarice said that her party's not going to end for another hour, so...
00:15:48What if I had you back by then?
00:15:51Fine. But we have to hurry.
00:15:56I love being around flowers.
00:15:59They remind me of my mom.
00:16:01I remember she always used to have lilies at our house.
00:16:04They're her favorite.
00:16:07You miss your mom a lot?
00:16:10Of course.
00:16:12It's kind of a weird question to ask.
00:16:14No, it's because I wanted to tell you something.
00:16:22There's no easy way to say it, so I'm just going to jump in.
00:16:26About five or six years ago,
00:16:29my dad came home from work pretty late.
00:16:32There was an accident,
00:16:34and he was behind the car that got hit.
00:16:38The lady driving the car was hit by a truck,
00:16:42and then she swerved into oncoming traffic
00:16:44and was hit again by a semi.
00:16:46Stop.
00:16:47He was the one who called 911.
00:16:51And he didn't say how bad it was,
00:16:55only that she was dying
00:16:57and that she wasn't going to make it to the hospital.
00:17:01So he sat there, and he held her hand,
00:17:04and he just let her talk.
00:17:07Please tell Cindy that I love her,
00:17:12and she's my princess.
00:17:14And no matter what, I'll be with her.
00:17:19Always.
00:17:27I remember, I remember a guy coming up to me
00:17:31before the funeral and saying those exact words.
00:17:36I had no idea it was your dad.
00:17:40When I told him that I had hit a girl's cat
00:17:43and her name was Indy,
00:17:44he asked if her name was actually Cindy Zimmerman.
00:17:49Only my family really knows that,
00:17:51but Cindy Ella, that's what she named me.
00:17:58He mentioned that she used to call you her little Cinderella.
00:18:02She was quite the romantic.
00:18:05He did everything he could to take her mind off the pain,
00:18:08and he told me that he could just see and feel
00:18:12how much that she cared for you.
00:18:16I know that.
00:18:20I never doubted that.
00:18:23I'm so sorry, Indy.
00:18:27It's fine.
00:18:29Bad things happen to people.
00:18:32It's just the way the world works, right?
00:18:34Yeah, but there's more to it than that.
00:18:39Like what?
00:18:41Well, yeah, bad things happen,
00:18:42but it's how you learn from those things and those trials
00:18:46and how you help others learn that defines you.
00:18:50Sounds way too deep for me.
00:18:55So, Jada and Caitlin are your cousins, right?
00:18:59Yep.
00:19:00And Jada's the senior and Caitlin's a sophomore like you, right?
00:19:05Or did I mix that up?
00:19:07No, you're right.
00:19:09They just pretty much leave you alone up here?
00:19:11I actually prefer to be alone.
00:19:15Hint, hint.
00:19:19It is different than the rest of the house.
00:19:23Aren't there any other rooms?
00:19:25Well, the master bedroom's on the first floor
00:19:27along with some studies and a guest room,
00:19:29and then there are four bedrooms on the second floor.
00:19:32So let me get this straight.
00:19:34There are six actual bedrooms?
00:19:36Well, the girls turned one of them into a playroom.
00:19:39And a guest bedroom.
00:19:41Clarice always has that ready for her guests.
00:19:43So why not put you in the toy room and move the toys elsewhere?
00:19:47I really don't mind.
00:19:54What are you doing?
00:19:57I know, I'm nosy.
00:20:00One question.
00:20:02Where are all your dolls and stuff?
00:20:05My dolls?
00:20:07Well, yeah, your cousins have so many they needed an extra room for them.
00:20:11Where are yours?
00:20:13I guess I really never had many.
00:20:16Mom enjoyed experiences more than things.
00:20:20Okay, but you were ten.
00:20:24I expect to at least see a teddy bear or something on your bed.
00:20:27Or maybe even things of your mom's.
00:20:31Well, the funeral expenses were too high, so...
00:20:36So?
00:20:38So we had to sell a lot of stuff.
00:20:40Really?
00:20:41Yeah.
00:20:43The only thing I got to bring with me was my cat.
00:20:47Hey, Indy! Mom said Brian Bailey is here.
00:20:51So you are here.
00:20:53Yep.
00:20:54So, Brian, what brings you here? How are you doing?
00:20:59I'm good. I was just talking to Indy.
00:21:03About what?
00:21:05Death.
00:21:07Is Clarice done with her presentation yet?
00:21:09Yes, thankfully it just ended.
00:21:12So what are you doing tomorrow night, Brian?
00:21:14We're having a few friends over to hang out and watch a movie.
00:21:16You want to come?
00:21:18Sure, that sounds fun.
00:21:21Jada, Mom said that Brian's here.
00:21:23He is. We're in the attic.
00:21:27How long have you been here?
00:21:31Indy and I have been talking for a while.
00:21:35Quite a while, actually. I should get going.
00:21:38You don't have to go.
00:21:41Homework.
00:21:42It's Friday.
00:21:43I'm committed.
00:21:46But I'll see you all tomorrow? Okay.
00:21:56Indy!
00:21:59Oh, ew.
00:22:01Did you know how long my girls and I had to work to get this place looking decent?
00:22:06I'm sorry.
00:22:08You should be!
00:22:09Your little vacation is over, missy.
00:22:13Everything needs to be cleaned up.
00:22:16I want my oils packed away neatly,
00:22:18and this entire area scrubbed from top to bottom.
00:22:21The girls are having their own party tomorrow,
00:22:23and I want everything to be absolutely amazing.
00:22:27Okay.
00:22:28That means dusting and sweeping, mop, bathrooms.
00:22:32Oh, don't forget to make fresh snacks.
00:22:36I don't know if I can get all of that done tonight.
00:22:40Well, of course not.
00:22:42Snacks need to be fresh, so you get up early in the morning and do those.
00:22:46Got it.
00:22:48Anything else?
00:22:50Yes.
00:22:51Since you weren't feeling well today,
00:22:53I think it's best that you just stay tucked away in your room during the party.
00:22:57You know, in case you're contagious.
00:23:02I didn't think I was invited anyway.
00:23:14Hey!
00:23:15Let me help.
00:23:16Hi.
00:23:18Feeling better?
00:23:19Much.
00:23:20How was your soccer game?
00:23:21It was a tie.
00:23:22Better than a horse.
00:23:23So close, though.
00:23:28Here, I got you.
00:23:31Thanks.
00:23:32So you doing chores all day, or?
00:23:34Yeah, cleaning and baking.
00:23:36Need any help?
00:23:37I mean, I'd love some, but Clarice would probably say I'm not working hard enough.
00:23:41Probably, yeah.
00:23:42Thanks anyway, though.
00:23:43Yeah, um, I'll see you Monday.
00:23:46See you Monday.
00:23:47Okay.
00:23:48Bye.
00:23:50Oh my gosh!
00:23:51How are you?
00:23:52Come on in.
00:23:53How are you?
00:23:54Okay, so food's over here.
00:23:55There's food in there.
00:23:56Thank you so much.
00:23:57It's so good to see you.
00:23:58Come on in.
00:23:59Okay, so this is all the food we have.
00:24:00It's really good.
00:24:01We worked super hard on it, getting it ready.
00:24:02Mmm.
00:24:04Guys, you're so sweet.
00:24:26Thank you.
00:24:50I'm so glad that you could come.
00:25:03Thanks.
00:25:04Hi, Bryant.
00:25:05Hey, Bryant.
00:25:06Hey, everybody.
00:25:07Uh, where's Indy?
00:25:08Why don't you go get some food and then come watch the movie?
00:25:12I saved you a seat, Bryant.
00:25:31Mom, I miss you so much.
00:25:52Whoa.
00:25:55Do you know how hard it is to find you in your own house?
00:25:59Gotta be freezing.
00:26:01How long have you been hiding out here?
00:26:04Thanks.
00:26:06But I wasn't hiding.
00:26:10How's the party?
00:26:12Fine, but it was missing something.
00:26:16What?
00:26:18You.
00:26:23Do you not like being around big groups?
00:26:25I already told you I wasn't hiding.
00:26:27Then why weren't you hanging out with us?
00:26:29I'm just tired.
00:26:30I had a long day.
00:26:31Yeah?
00:26:32What'd you do today?
00:26:34I cleaned and I cooked.
00:26:36Did you make all the food in there tonight?
00:26:38Yeah.
00:26:39It was good.
00:26:41Thank you.
00:26:44Hey, Indy.
00:26:49When your cousins invited me tonight, didn't that include you too?
00:26:56We don't really hang in the same social circles or anything, so...
00:27:01Yeah, but you made everything for their party tonight.
00:27:06Yeah.
00:27:08I mean, look, it's really not a big deal.
00:27:11Wow.
00:27:13You're literally Cinderella.
00:27:15No.
00:27:17Cinderella's just a name my mom loved.
00:27:19It's not who I am.
00:27:21It fits you perfectly.
00:27:22I prefer Indy much better.
00:27:24All right.
00:27:25Well, come on.
00:27:30Let's get you out of your prison.
00:27:34Okay.
00:27:36But I'm not Cinderella.
00:27:43This is so good.
00:27:47I'm glad you like it.
00:27:49My mom used to bring me here all the time.
00:27:51Where'd she stop?
00:27:53She died about ten years ago.
00:27:58How'd she die?
00:28:00It was sudden, like your mom.
00:28:04One minute she was riding her bike to work, and the next she was hit by somebody who was texting and driving.
00:28:12How'd you get through it?
00:28:14Well, I missed her like crazy.
00:28:17She was riding her bike because she and I were doing this child-parent triathlon that summer.
00:28:22We would go out in the evenings and ride our bikes, wake up early, go to the swimming pool and practice.
00:28:29Wow.
00:28:31Did you still end up doing it?
00:28:33By myself?
00:28:36No.
00:28:37That day of the triathlon, I just curled up in my bed and didn't move all day.
00:28:44Everyone seemed to forget about the race, but I didn't.
00:28:52That was the day that I cried the most.
00:28:57I'm so sorry.
00:29:02Well, I think that we should do this more often.
00:29:06What, share grief stories?
00:29:09No.
00:29:10Get to know each other.
00:29:12That's how relationships start.
00:29:14Whoa, you need to slow down.
00:29:16I don't know you, you don't know me.
00:29:19You think we're starting a relationship now?
00:29:22I don't know, maybe.
00:29:24Besides, all friendships are relationships, and I just want to get to know you better.
00:29:28What's so wrong with that?
00:29:30It's going to be a little hard.
00:29:32Why?
00:29:33If Clarice even knew that I was here right now, she...
00:29:36She'd lose it.
00:29:38You have no idea.
00:29:41She's not really into me having relationships.
00:29:46So what are you really trying to say?
00:29:48I'm saying you're probably better off trying to start a friendship with one of my cousins.
00:29:54What if I don't want to get to know them better?
00:29:57They seem like they want to get to know you.
00:30:01Speaking of which, aren't they going to notice you left their movie party?
00:30:04They may have, but they were just gossiping and didn't seem to see me slip out.
00:30:10Plus, I like to hang out with kind girls, and from what I've noticed, they're not.
00:30:19Hey.
00:30:22Thank you for tonight.
00:30:24It was fun. Thanks for coming.
00:30:27Would you want to go on another date next weekend?
00:30:31This wasn't a date.
00:30:33Then what was it?
00:30:35Brian, you and I are from two completely different worlds.
00:30:39So?
00:30:41So I'm not the kind of person you typically hang out with.
00:30:44But you're exactly who I want to be around.
00:30:46And you...
00:30:48Look, you're just not my type, okay?
00:30:52Is that the real reason?
00:30:57I could get in a lot of trouble for being with you right now.
00:31:02What's wrong with me?
00:31:03It's not you. It's me.
00:31:05Are you breaking up with me already?
00:31:09My aunt doesn't like me staying out.
00:31:11People at school are going to notice, and they're going to talk.
00:31:14All right, well, let's do it this way, then.
00:31:17We'll just keep our relationship...
00:31:18Friendship.
00:31:20...a secret for a couple of weeks and see how that goes.
00:31:23I want to hang out with you as friends.
00:31:27And maybe more one day.
00:31:33Look, it's getting late, Cinderella.
00:31:35Let's get you inside before you turn into a pumpkin.
00:31:37Don't call me Cinderella.
00:31:39I don't know if you've noticed,
00:31:41but your aunt and cousins are playing their parts to a T.
00:31:45Whatever.
00:31:47Hey, wait.
00:31:53Can I get my shirt back?
00:32:00Night.
00:32:06As we explore the findings of Shakespeare's Hamlet,
00:32:10I want you to pay particular attention to the following scene
00:32:14as to how you can use it in our everyday lives.
00:32:18William Shakespeare wrote relatable characters so well
00:32:22that after hundreds of years, we can still enjoy them.
00:32:26Even though life was a whole lot different for them than it is now,
00:32:30they still had the same needs and desires and problems,
00:32:35just like you.
00:32:41Indy.
00:32:46Indy, where are you going?
00:32:48Oh, sorry, I was looking for somebody.
00:32:53What's gotten into you?
00:32:56What?
00:32:57You're smiling.
00:32:59I smile.
00:33:01Okay.
00:33:02So anything new going on?
00:33:12All right, spill.
00:33:14What's going on?
00:33:17Nothing.
00:33:18Oh, I'm not that stupid.
00:33:19Share, please, already, or I'll get a complex.
00:33:22When have you ever gotten a complex?
00:33:27You are avoiding the question, ma'am.
00:33:31You don't want to talk?
00:33:32That's fine.
00:33:33But just so you know, the next time you want to know something,
00:33:35I'll leave you hanging, too.
00:33:37That's not fair.
00:33:39It's a secret.
00:33:41Oh, come on, I'm not going to tell anybody, all right?
00:33:43I won't say a word.
00:33:44Okay.
00:33:46You have to keep your mouth shut.
00:33:49What did you do?
00:33:52Bryant Bailey, he, I think he likes me.
00:34:01What?
00:34:02Yeah, we went out this weekend.
00:34:05Wait, what?
00:34:06I mean, not on a date.
00:34:08I mean, I made sure not to call it that.
00:34:12But he wanted to.
00:34:15What?
00:34:17I know.
00:34:19It's really, really weird.
00:34:21And that's why I want to keep it a secret.
00:34:24I can't even wrap my head around it.
00:34:26Hang on, seriously, you're not joking?
00:34:28No.
00:34:29He came over Friday, and then he came over again Saturday,
00:34:32and we actually have a lot in common.
00:34:36The Bryant Bailey.
00:34:38The guy you completely despise who killed your cat
00:34:40and has been stalking you ever since
00:34:42to apologize for destroying your life.
00:34:44Is that Bryant Bailey?
00:34:46Yeah.
00:34:47Wow.
00:34:49I would not have expected it.
00:34:52Me either.
00:34:53And he said he wants to date you?
00:34:55Well, not in those exact words, but yeah.
00:34:59Wow.
00:35:01That's crazy.
00:35:02So what did he say when you told him you already had a boyfriend?
00:35:07What?
00:35:10Who?
00:35:14When did this happen?
00:35:16Last year.
00:35:17I didn't even know you liked me like that.
00:35:19Indy, I have always liked you, you just didn't want a boyfriend.
00:35:22I didn't?
00:35:23I don't think so, so I just hung back and we were just friends.
00:35:27Until last year.
00:35:28Yeah.
00:35:29It seems like it's a shock to you.
00:35:31Uh, yeah.
00:35:33I have to go.
00:35:34Talk later?
00:35:35Definitely.
00:35:39On page 275, you're going to find a lot of information
00:35:43that you'll find necessary to complete the worksheet
00:35:45before the end of class.
00:35:47If you finish early, you can use the duration of your time
00:35:50to prepare for a quiz that may or may not surprise you
00:35:54sometime this week.
00:35:56We've been studying the Declaration of Independence,
00:35:58so that's a good clue on what the quiz will be on.
00:36:01Remember Thomas Jefferson, not only was he our third president,
00:36:04but one of the main authors of the Declaration of Independence.
00:36:07I recommend that you write that in your notes.
00:36:12Hey, how was your day?
00:36:15Interesting.
00:36:17Learned lots of revealing stuff.
00:36:21So, what happened to change our relationship?
00:36:27What?
00:36:28Oh, okay, are you talking about how I knew you had just
00:36:32a burning desire in the deepest of your heart
00:36:36to be with me, even if you wouldn't say it out loud?
00:36:39I guess so.
00:36:41Like how I'm having fun with this?
00:36:45Sorry, um, do you remember last summer?
00:36:51You were sick, and you asked me to come over,
00:36:56and I snuck out and stayed the night with you
00:36:59and talked till you had felt better?
00:37:02That was pretty delirious.
00:37:04Yeah, but for the first time, I saw how scared you were.
00:37:11You showed me how scared you were, and it was awesome.
00:37:15Not for you, obviously, you were all sneezy and feverish,
00:37:20but you've always been this tough, fun girl,
00:37:25and you needed someone.
00:37:27I don't know, I thought things changed then.
00:37:33Well, I guess they did.
00:37:37I just...
00:37:39You just didn't see us as an item.
00:37:42I saw us as best friends.
00:37:46Yeah, and I saw us as boyfriend-girlfriend,
00:37:49because I thought I was the closest thing to that for you.
00:37:53So, after last summer, why didn't you say something
00:37:57or try and take me out or kiss me or something?
00:38:00Kiss you? You're not the kissin' type.
00:38:03No, no, sorry, not that I don't want to, I just...
00:38:09I got the feeling you weren't ready for that yet.
00:38:12I didn't even know we were in a relationship.
00:38:15Now that you do?
00:38:23Yeah, sorry, I decided I wasn't going to hold back anymore.
00:38:27Apparently, I'm awesome at this communication thing,
00:38:30so let me try this again.
00:38:32I, um...
00:38:34I...
00:38:36I want to be your boyfriend.
00:38:39Thank you?
00:38:43All right, is that a yes?
00:38:46I, uh, I need some more time to think.
00:38:51Yeah, do you want to go somewhere, do something fun?
00:38:55When?
00:38:57Tomorrow, after school.
00:38:59Clarice will have a cow.
00:39:01Clarice always has a cow, she's going to have to deal with it.
00:39:04You can tell her you're working on a school project with me.
00:39:10Okay, I'd like that.
00:39:25Hey, Mrs. Whitman.
00:39:34Let me guess, your aunt doesn't do much yard work.
00:39:39I have much bigger problems to worry about right now.
00:39:42Yeah, like what?
00:39:44Maxton thinking I'm his girlfriend.
00:39:46Like a girl that's a friend?
00:39:48Nope.
00:39:50Do you think of yourself as his girlfriend?
00:39:52No, but...
00:39:54Like, have you guys ever gone on a date?
00:39:56No.
00:39:57Or even held hands or kissed?
00:39:59No, I mean, I guess today we did, but...
00:40:02What?
00:40:04He kissed me, today, when I told him about me and you.
00:40:07You told him about us?
00:40:09He's my best friend, and he could tell something was up
00:40:12the minute I walked in the room,
00:40:14and he started hounding me and hounding me,
00:40:16and finally I gave in.
00:40:18But it backfired.
00:40:20Well, I guess now things just get interesting.
00:40:22What do you mean?
00:40:24Have you ever thought about giving him a chance?
00:40:27You're giving up already?
00:40:29Well, you guys have been friends for forever.
00:40:32He definitely has a lead on me.
00:40:34I have never seen him in that way.
00:40:37Besides, what if I start liking Maxton more than you?
00:40:41So you're saying that you like me?
00:40:43At least a little bit.
00:40:46I will be your friend regardless, okay?
00:40:49But what about Maxton?
00:40:51I'd love to give him a chance,
00:40:54but I do hope you realize that I still want a chance, too.
00:40:58laughs
00:41:03I'm glad you came out with me.
00:41:06You're not afraid of heights, are you?
00:41:09No.
00:41:11Even if I was, though, I'd stick it out.
00:41:14It's our first date.
00:41:16I guess so, yeah.
00:41:18Well, realize it.
00:41:21So just out of curiosity,
00:41:24why all the awkwardness?
00:41:26You seem shocked I even like you.
00:41:28I just never saw it.
00:41:30You ever wonder why I eat lunch with you every single day?
00:41:34I thought it was because we were best friends,
00:41:37but I did notice all your soccer friends
00:41:39asking you to go with them and you saying no,
00:41:42but was that because of me?
00:41:45This is a trick question.
00:41:47Um...
00:41:49Look, I like you, okay?
00:41:53I have for a long time,
00:41:55and Clarice won't give you lunch money to go out to eat,
00:41:58and she refuses to let you make anything at home
00:42:01because she thinks it's tacky, so...
00:42:04I don't know, when you got embarrassed
00:42:06about only eating school food,
00:42:08I had my mom get me meal tickets, too.
00:42:12Right.
00:42:14Yeah, yeah, it didn't really matter to me where I ate
00:42:17as long as I was with you.
00:42:19And all your soccer friends, they know?
00:42:24Yeah.
00:42:26Soccer buddies tease me about my girlfriend all the time.
00:42:30Mostly they just ask why you never come to my games.
00:42:34With you.
00:42:36Yeah, I tell them it's complicated.
00:42:39I know Clarice and David don't really go for that kind of thing,
00:42:43and I didn't want to make it harder on you,
00:42:46so I never really pushed it, I guess.
00:42:49And all the times we went out to lunch,
00:42:53you saw that as a date?
00:42:56I guess so. I don't know.
00:42:59Look, I fell at this whole relationship thing, clearly.
00:43:05I know I'm not... I'm not Brian Bailey.
00:43:09Okay, that guy's his own brand of... whatever.
00:43:13What I'm... what I'm hoping is...
00:43:18that you care about me, even if I'm not...
00:43:22Hey.
00:43:24I care about you.
00:43:27Okay?
00:43:30Okay.
00:43:33Wow.
00:43:35And I want to come to your next soccer game.
00:43:38You mean this Saturday?
00:43:40Yeah, what time?
00:43:42Are you serious? What'll Clarice say?
00:43:44I'll deal with that later.
00:43:46Well, if you're serious, the game's at 1 o'clock.
00:43:50Okay.
00:43:52Indy, um...
00:43:55You know, I want to be your boyfriend.
00:43:59What do you think?
00:44:01Can I just have some more time to think about it?
00:44:04I just... I don't want to rush into anything.
00:44:07Uh, yeah, yeah. Sure.
00:44:16Where have you been?
00:44:18I was, um, working on a school project.
00:44:21Something you couldn't have done here?
00:44:24It was a group thing with, uh... with Maxton.
00:44:28Hmm.
00:44:30Well, get started cleaning the house.
00:44:32Okay.
00:44:34And David wants something other than pasta for dinner tonight.
00:44:37Think spicy.
00:44:39I'll... I'll see what I can do.
00:44:52Hey, you.
00:44:55So how was your date with Maxton?
00:44:57You guys officially boyfriend and girlfriend now?
00:45:00Not yet.
00:45:02I never knew it,
00:45:04but he's actually sacrificed a lot to keep me company.
00:45:08Like what?
00:45:10Like he eats cafeteria food every day
00:45:13just because he knows I always have to.
00:45:15Why do you always have to?
00:45:17I don't get money to go out to lunch.
00:45:20I see your cousin's going all the time.
00:45:22Well, that's part of their allowance.
00:45:24If they keep their grades up,
00:45:26they get money every week to go out.
00:45:28What do you do with your allowance?
00:45:33Indy, come on, tell me.
00:45:35Why should I?
00:45:37Because I'm beginning to think that you don't get an allowance.
00:45:40Do Jada and Caitlin do any housework?
00:45:43No, they're usually busy during the day.
00:45:46They get home just in time for dinner, and then they crash.
00:45:49So little Cinderella does all the housework,
00:45:51and if she doesn't get it all done,
00:45:53then Auntie Clarice gets angry and doesn't refill her lunch card.
00:45:56I don't exactly love cleaning and cooking
00:45:58and being grounded all the time,
00:46:00but they're the only family I have.
00:46:04Indy, why are you so nice?
00:46:07I've been horrible to you for weeks.
00:46:10I wish there was a way that I could just go back and...
00:46:13Ryan, it's really okay.
00:46:16Mrs. Wiggins shouldn't have run out into the road
00:46:18and it's actually really bad of me to blame you
00:46:21for something that's nobody's fault.
00:46:23I'm sorry.
00:46:25Here you are being nice again.
00:46:28Well, I should probably let you go.
00:46:31Want to walk to school tomorrow?
00:46:33Sure.
00:46:35See you then.
00:46:45Hey, you're still up.
00:46:47Yeah.
00:46:49Couldn't sleep.
00:46:51So I've been hanging out with Indy.
00:46:53Oh, good, good.
00:46:55She's really something.
00:46:57So hanging out with is really code for you like her.
00:47:02Yeah.
00:47:04But I did something stupid.
00:47:06What?
00:47:07I encouraged her to figure herself out with this other guy.
00:47:11I'm an idiot.
00:47:13You're being a good friend.
00:47:15But I don't want her to date him.
00:47:17Well, are you going to do anything about it?
00:47:20I don't know.
00:47:22You have a good heart.
00:47:24Hey, you're respecting her.
00:47:26You're letting her make her own choice.
00:47:29I guess.
00:47:31She's special, huh?
00:47:37Dad, you see a lot of family stuff, right?
00:47:41With work?
00:47:42Yes.
00:47:44Is it common for families who take in orphans to treat them differently?
00:47:48Why do you ask?
00:47:50I've just noticed some things.
00:47:53It's like she's not an equal.
00:47:57Not even close.
00:48:00Yeah, it happens.
00:48:02And sometimes without the people even realizing they're doing it.
00:48:07Are you worried?
00:48:11I'm not sure yet.
00:48:16I hate running.
00:48:18Apparently it's good for you.
00:48:20So is math.
00:48:21Doesn't mean I have to like it.
00:48:23Awesome.
00:48:24Hey.
00:48:25Oh, jeez.
00:48:27Come on.
00:48:28Let's finish this lap so I can go die quietly somewhere else.
00:48:31That's the spirit.
00:48:32Here we go.
00:48:34Hey, now you're just showing off.
00:48:36Yeah, every single day.
00:48:37I can't see you finally noticing.
00:48:42Hey, you.
00:48:44Hey.
00:48:46Hey, instead of going home, do you want to take a quick detour?
00:48:50What did you have in mind?
00:48:55So this is your detour?
00:48:57Yeah.
00:48:58I love playgrounds.
00:49:00I don't know, there's just something about them that reminds me you're never too old to have fun.
00:49:04Okay.
00:49:05So what's your favorite thing here?
00:49:06Oh, by far, the merry-go-round.
00:49:08I don't know, there's just something so fun to me about spinning around as fast as you can while trying not to get sick.
00:49:15Yeah.
00:49:16There was this one time when I was little, right?
00:49:18I was running as fast as my little legs would let me, and I was pushing it so hard that I just completely flew off and broke my arm.
00:49:25Oh, no.
00:49:26Yeah, but I survived.
00:49:27And it didn't stop me from coming back again and again.
00:49:30I mean, that is until they got rid of the merry-go-round a few years later, but...
00:49:34I guess swings will have to do for today, right?
00:49:39Hey, uh, us being here isn't going to get you in trouble with your aunt, will it?
00:49:44I mean, as long as we're not out too late.
00:49:49Did, uh, I mean, was she cool about it when Max and I dropped you off after your guys' date?
00:49:55Not necessarily, but I told her we were doing a school project, so...
00:49:59How'd that work?
00:50:00Not well.
00:50:01I had to do a few extra chores around the house, but...
00:50:03So you did get in trouble.
00:50:05Kids get in trouble for that kind of stuff all the time.
00:50:07Yeah?
00:50:09I mean, when I get in trouble, my dad just, I don't know, he just chews me out.
00:50:14Sometimes he'll listen when it's important to me, but I've noticed that when you get in trouble, you just kind of become Clarice's servant.
00:50:22Maybe what Max and I should have done and what any friend, including me, should do is walk you in and take the blame for making you late.
00:50:30Chances are at that point, Clarice will kind of back way down and be less harsh.
00:50:34Maybe in the end, she...
00:50:35In the end, she would just wait for you to leave and then chew me out anyway.
00:50:39Hey, Bryant!
00:50:44Why is he with Indy?
00:50:48Come on. We should probably get you home.
00:50:55There's no way I can lie now. The girls already saw us at the park.
00:50:58You'll be fine.
00:50:59Speak of the devil.
00:51:03I'm here.
00:51:04No, Bryant, just go home. I'll be fine, okay?
00:51:10What are you doing?
00:51:12Exactly what I should be doing.
00:51:15Hey, Mrs. Taylor.
00:51:16Hi, Bryant. My girls said they saw you at the park. They just left for the mall. They'll be so sad they missed you.
00:51:23Oh, well, tell them I say hi.
00:51:28Are we too late? Were you looking for Indy?
00:51:32You know I was. Yesterday she was so late getting home that I just wanted to make sure she made it home today.
00:51:40Do you need me to stay?
00:51:42Oh, Indy will be just fine without you. Now go ahead and have a seat in the living room.
00:51:47Thank you for walking me home.
00:51:59You're walking on very thin ice right now.
00:52:02I don't know what it is you're trying to prove with Bryant Bailey, but remember he is only being nice to you because he killed your cat.
00:52:09My girls have had their eyes on him for years, and the last thing I need is you getting in Jada's way, especially with prom right around the corner.
00:52:17Go do your chores. We'll talk about this later.
00:52:22Yes, ma'am.
00:52:33Hello?
00:52:38Hey. What happened?
00:52:40Nothing I haven't heard before.
00:52:42Well, let me know if it gets bad.
00:52:44I'm sure everything will be okay.
00:52:46I'm serious.
00:52:47Okay.
00:52:49Want to walk to school tomorrow?
00:52:51I actually probably shouldn't. I have to go to Maxton's soccer game on Saturday, and I wouldn't want to be grounded before then.
00:52:59Bryant, thank you.
00:53:03Anytime.
00:53:05Good night.
00:53:06Night.
00:53:10♪♪♪
00:53:20♪♪♪
00:53:30♪♪♪
00:53:40♪♪♪
00:53:50♪♪♪
00:54:00♪♪♪
00:54:10♪♪♪
00:54:20♪♪♪
00:54:30Come on, guys. Let's help him.
00:54:32♪♪♪
00:54:40♪♪♪
00:54:50♪♪♪
00:55:00♪♪♪
00:55:10You did amazing.
00:55:13Is your leg going to be okay, though?
00:55:16Oh, yeah, um, I think so.
00:55:18I think it's probably just bruised or sprained.
00:55:20I'll put some mice on it when I get home.
00:55:22Oh, hey, let me help you.
00:55:24Oh, thanks.
00:55:27So, besides the injury,
00:55:31are you always that good?
00:55:33You know what?
00:55:35Today I think I had some extra motivation.
00:55:40Thank you for coming.
00:55:42Watching me play means a lot.
00:55:44Of course.
00:55:46You know, it's funny, I, um...
00:55:49I've always liked you,
00:55:51but I never, never thought I'd feel like this.
00:55:54I like this.
00:55:56I like us.
00:55:58♪♪♪♪
00:56:07Come on.
00:56:09Let's go get some ice on your leg.
00:56:13Okay.
00:56:26Oh, it's you.
00:56:28Nice welcome.
00:56:30So you back from the soccer game?
00:56:32Yeah, just barely.
00:56:34How was it? Did Clarice get mad?
00:56:36I actually don't think she remembered I went to go study.
00:56:40I snuck in through the side door so nobody would see me.
00:56:42Andy, get down here!
00:56:45Um, sorry I have to go.
00:56:48Clarice is calling.
00:56:50Calling or yelling?
00:56:52Yeah. Bye.
00:56:58Have a seat.
00:57:02So would you like to tell us where you really were today?
00:57:06And don't lie.
00:57:08I was at Max's soccer game.
00:57:11So you weren't studying after all.
00:57:15And what about after?
00:57:17After...
00:57:19I came straight home after.
00:57:21Really?
00:57:23Because Clarice received a call
00:57:25that would seem to imply otherwise.
00:57:28Mrs. Whitman called me
00:57:30and said that she saw you and some boy
00:57:33making out in the middle of the soccer field
00:57:35right there in front of everyone to see.
00:57:37Well, we kissed once,
00:57:39but I promised we didn't make out.
00:57:41Do you have any idea
00:57:44how embarrassing it is to receive a call like that?
00:57:48I'm sorry.
00:57:50I have to go into my office.
00:57:52Do whatever you need to do here, Clarice.
00:57:56Deal with her.
00:57:57What?
00:57:58You're not leaving me here to handle this by myself.
00:58:00What, do you want her going around the neighborhood
00:58:02like some floozy?
00:58:04Well, with her mother, what would we really expect?
00:58:07What's that supposed to mean?
00:58:09Fix this.
00:58:11No, do you have something you'd like to say?
00:58:14My actions, my choices, are mine.
00:58:20So don't you dare pin this on my mother.
00:58:24My mom loved me and cared for me
00:58:28and worked herself sick trying to provide for me.
00:58:32And she had nothing but nice things to say about you two,
00:58:35so I am done hearing how awful you think she was.
00:58:41You don't get to...
00:58:43I know you don't want me.
00:58:46I knew it the moment I showed up to stay with you.
00:58:50I was just some poor relative
00:58:52who was coming to intrude on your lives,
00:58:55but I was loved before this.
00:58:58And I know the difference between this
00:59:02and what a real family is supposed to feel like.
00:59:06I have done everything you have asked me to do.
00:59:11Everything.
00:59:13And it is still not enough.
00:59:17Sure, Jada and Caitlin get to go on dates
00:59:20and see their friends and have normal lives.
00:59:26But not me.
00:59:28What is it going to take for you to see me as family?
00:59:34Oh!
00:59:38Oh, Missy, how entertaining was that?
00:59:43I'm serious.
00:59:46You want serious?
00:59:48If you don't learn to respect both of us in this home,
00:59:52you can find another place to stay.
00:59:59And what is respect to you, Uncle David?
01:00:03Doing all the chores?
01:00:05Staying away during family events?
01:00:09Living in the attic and not having life outside of school
01:00:13until you tell me to come make dinner for you?
01:00:18Is that respect?
01:00:20Because if so, what of that have I not been doing?
01:00:24You're acting as if we're treating you like a maid.
01:00:28After everything that we did,
01:00:31after all the things we changed to make room for you in our lives!
01:00:37Do you hear yourself?
01:00:39Enough!
01:00:41You will go to your room,
01:00:43and we will decide on a punishment for you,
01:00:46you selfish little brat!
01:00:49And let me tell you, it will be severe!
01:00:55Go now.
01:01:19Go.
01:01:49Go.
01:02:20Hey, Indy, I can't really talk right now.
01:02:23Sorry, did I wake you up?
01:02:25No, no, it's okay.
01:02:27It's just my ankle.
01:02:29My mom made me go to the clinic to get an X-ray.
01:02:32Are you okay?
01:02:34Yeah, I should be.
01:02:36I'm just still in a lot of pain.
01:02:38Can I call you back?
01:02:40Um...
01:02:42I'm having a really rough night.
01:02:47It's bad here.
01:02:49Yeah?
01:02:50It's probably the worst it's ever been.
01:02:53I'm sorry.
01:02:54Maybe just give your aunt some time to cool down.
01:02:57That usually works, right?
01:03:00I'm scared.
01:03:03Hey, the doctor just came back in,
01:03:05so can I call you back tomorrow?
01:03:07Tomorrow?
01:03:08Yeah, sure.
01:03:10Okay, uh, night.
01:03:16Sigh.
01:03:47Wait a minute.
01:03:49Are you leaving?
01:03:53Indy, what's going on?
01:03:56I messed up.
01:03:58Really, really bad.
01:04:01Okay, what happened?
01:04:03I guess one of the neighbors called Clarice
01:04:06and told her I was making out with Maxon at his soccer game.
01:04:09Uh...
01:04:11I don't know.
01:04:13Soccer game?
01:04:15Uh...
01:04:17Were you?
01:04:19Sorry, that's not important.
01:04:21We kissed.
01:04:23We didn't make out, though.
01:04:24It was in front of a group of people.
01:04:27And your aunt chewed you out?
01:04:30Her aunt, David.
01:04:32And then David made a comment
01:04:34about how he thought my mom raised me poorly,
01:04:36and I just lost it.
01:04:39All the stuff I had pent up just came out.
01:04:42And then David said that if I disrespected them one more time,
01:04:45I'd be kicked out, and then he said
01:04:47my punishment was gonna be really bad.
01:04:49So you came upstairs and started packing?
01:04:51Yeah.
01:04:54Did you tell them how unfair it was
01:04:56that you're the maid and the cook and the prisoner
01:04:59all while they get to go out and live?
01:05:01Sort of.
01:05:03Look, it was awful.
01:05:05My filter was completely gone.
01:05:08So now what?
01:05:10I don't know.
01:05:13Do you need a place to stay?
01:05:18No, I'll be fine.
01:05:21Their threats aren't going to get any better.
01:05:24Look, my dad's a family therapist,
01:05:26and he sees this stuff all the time,
01:05:28and the problem with abusive people is that
01:05:30they just always think they're right.
01:05:32You think they're abusive?
01:05:34Yeah.
01:05:36Their daughters are perfect.
01:05:39And you're not allowed to be.
01:05:41Excuses to keep you grounded,
01:05:43not inviting you to things,
01:05:45not even giving you a proper bedroom.
01:05:48The list goes on and on.
01:05:51I mean, it's bad, but it's not abuse.
01:05:55Yes, it is.
01:05:57It's definitely emotional abuse,
01:05:59which can be so harmful and dangerous.
01:06:04Look, I think that you need to come with me.
01:06:07Can I have time to think about this?
01:06:11Actually, do you mind if I call my dad
01:06:14and just ask for his advice?
01:06:19I'll just be a second, but in the meantime,
01:06:21you should really, really keep packing, okay?
01:06:32Yeah, I'll tell her.
01:06:34Okay.
01:06:36Bye.
01:06:38What'd he say?
01:06:40Well, he was obviously concerned when I told him.
01:06:44What I didn't know is,
01:06:46now that I've told him by law,
01:06:48he's got to tell Child Protective Services.
01:06:52What?
01:06:54Are you sure?
01:06:59Indy, he could lose his license if he didn't.
01:07:01This is insane.
01:07:03I know, but look, I'm sorry,
01:07:06and I promise we'll keep it private.
01:07:08Brian, I can't do this.
01:07:10Jada and Kaitlin...
01:07:12No, this is not about them.
01:07:14This is about you.
01:07:17My dad says that you can come stay with us.
01:07:20He's certified to take in foster kids,
01:07:22and he really doesn't think you're safe here.
01:07:26Look, I think that you just need to come stay with us tonight.
01:07:29I really don't think that they're gonna hit me or anything.
01:07:32No, but they might just lock you in your room or something.
01:07:34They always do that!
01:07:37What, is that considered abuse, too?
01:07:39I'm getting the bags. We're leaving.
01:07:41You didn't answer my question!
01:07:43I don't need to.
01:07:45If they're going to lock you in your room for being a normal child,
01:07:48imagine what they're gonna do when they're all upset.
01:07:53We're leaving.
01:08:03Hey, come on in.
01:08:05Welcome, Indy.
01:08:07Thank you.
01:08:09Your home is beautiful.
01:08:11Listen, I want you to feel as comfortable here as you can,
01:08:16so I hope you don't mind that your room is next to Brian's.
01:08:19He is a boy, and they, you know, they stink sometimes.
01:08:24And I know you're really tired, but if you feel up to it,
01:08:28would you mind answering some questions for me?
01:08:30It'll help me know better what to do in the morning.
01:08:34Yeah? Okay.
01:08:36And then Brian will help you get settled after.
01:08:38Okay, just through here.
01:08:49Just get some rest for now, Indy.
01:08:52I will.
01:08:54And thank you for...
01:08:56Oh, we are happy, too.
01:09:00Brian, could you show her to her room?
01:09:02Come on. You can meet my sisters in the morning.
01:09:12Here's your room.
01:09:14Thanks.
01:09:22What do you think Clarice is going to do when she realizes I'm not there?
01:09:25Don't worry about them.
01:09:27Just focus on yourself for once.
01:09:29I just really hope I did the right thing.
01:09:32You did do the right thing.
01:09:34Besides, you're here with friends.
01:09:37Okay.
01:09:39All right, and if you can't fall asleep, just shoot me a text, okay?
01:09:43We'll go watch a movie in the living room or something.
01:09:52Thank you...
01:09:55for everything.
01:09:57How did we get to this point?
01:10:00You killed my cat.
01:10:04And I'll never live that down, ever.
01:10:08Nope.
01:10:19Good night.
01:10:24Good night.
01:10:55Hey.
01:10:57Ease up. Save some for everyone else.
01:11:00Oh, God.
01:11:04Morning.
01:11:06Oh, hey.
01:11:08Um, indeed, these are my sisters.
01:11:10This is Mackenzie and Ronnie.
01:11:12I'm sure you know Mackenzie from school.
01:11:14We're glad you could stay with us.
01:11:16I'm sorry the circumstances aren't better.
01:11:19I'm sorry I woke up so late.
01:11:22I'm sorry I woke up so late.
01:11:24No worries. It's Sunday.
01:11:26These are good.
01:11:30Indy, do you want syrup?
01:11:34Those are for me?
01:11:36Yeah.
01:11:40Um, yeah. Tons.
01:11:43Have a seat.
01:11:46Well, I hope we don't have any fistfights over whipped cream this time.
01:11:49I, uh...
01:11:51I used up the last of it yesterday.
01:11:54Oh, well, that settles that.
01:11:56So you had a chance to meet the rest of the gang?
01:11:58Yeah.
01:12:00And thank you guys so much for letting me stay here.
01:12:03Oh, you know, I've been on the phone already this morning,
01:12:06and things are moving forward.
01:12:08I'll tell you more about it after you've had a chance to eat.
01:12:13Oh, you know, I've been thinking, you know,
01:12:15we have that apartment in the pool house out back.
01:12:18Maybe you'd be more comfortable staying out there.
01:12:20You know, you'd be close to the family and to the house here,
01:12:23but you'd have a little privacy, too.
01:12:26Um, yeah, that's fine.
01:12:30Excuse me.
01:12:34Eat up.
01:12:44They've hired a powerful attorney,
01:12:46and he's insisting that the venue be the aunt and uncle's home.
01:12:49No way. You are the government representative.
01:12:52You're supposed to be keeping her safe.
01:12:54We are supposed to keep her safe.
01:12:56You know these things take time and some finagling.
01:12:58They are the legal guardians.
01:13:00So you want her to go back over there right now and face them
01:13:02after everything she's been through?
01:13:04We don't know what she's been through. That's the point.
01:13:07But Officer Reed and I are here to make sure she's safe.
01:13:10And that, or to force her back to her aunt's house.
01:13:13Dr. Bailey, please work with me here.
01:13:19Indy?
01:13:20How many pancakes did you eat?
01:13:22A lot.
01:13:23Indy!
01:13:24What's wrong?
01:13:29What's going on?
01:13:35Indy!
01:13:43Indy...
01:14:14Was this all a joke?
01:14:18What?
01:14:20The whole saving me thing.
01:14:22No!
01:14:24I trusted you.
01:14:26Hey, you're not going back.
01:14:28They heard them talking, and they said
01:14:31there was a police officer there.
01:14:33Hey, hey, hey.
01:14:36Can I just explain, please?
01:14:44Your aunt and uncle are trying all sorts of excuses and tactics.
01:14:48Some that my dad have already dealt with this morning.
01:14:51They're moving fast, but there are rules.
01:14:54And you are not going back there.
01:14:57But I heard them talk, talking.
01:15:03Yeah, they were trying to get you to do the interview
01:15:06at Clarice's house with Child Protective Services,
01:15:08but my dad is dead set against that.
01:15:11You should not have to be anywhere
01:15:13where you're feeling uncomfortable.
01:15:16Interview?
01:15:18Yeah.
01:15:19Look, you're old enough to voice your own opinion now.
01:15:22So my dad talked to the Child Protective Services lady,
01:15:25and they agreed to let you do it wherever you choose.
01:15:29But why was there a police officer there?
01:15:35That was just precaution.
01:15:37You know, in case you had to go back to your aunt's house,
01:15:39you would feel safe.
01:15:45Why are you doing this for me?
01:15:49Why wouldn't we?
01:15:53Indy, I'm not going to sit there and watch you be treated horribly.
01:15:57And neither is my dad.
01:16:00I don't want to be a burden.
01:16:02You are not a burden.
01:16:04I feel like I've been causing a lot of problems.
01:16:10Your dad mentioned moving me out to the pool house.
01:16:14And I...
01:16:17You got banished to the attic in Clarice's house.
01:16:21Indy, that is not what we meant by that.
01:16:25My dad just thought you might want some privacy
01:16:28or personal space.
01:16:31Look, you are more than welcome to stay in the house.
01:16:34I'm sorry, we should have thought of that.
01:16:36No, I'm sorry for overreacting.
01:16:41No, you didn't.
01:16:44So everything's really okay?
01:16:48No.
01:16:50But it will be.
01:16:54Thank you.
01:16:58Come on, let's go.
01:17:03I thought you might be needing these
01:17:05since you ran out of the house without them, right?
01:17:07Come on, let's go.
01:17:13Indy!
01:17:18Are you okay?
01:17:22Are you okay?
01:17:25Um, yeah.
01:17:28Are you really?
01:17:30I'm sorry.
01:17:32I just thought that...
01:17:35I thought wrong.
01:17:37Well, that caseworker,
01:17:39she wants to talk to you first thing tomorrow morning
01:17:41at her office, if that works for you.
01:17:45I guess, but what about school?
01:17:47Oh, I'll deal with the principal.
01:17:49Yeah, right, now this is more important.
01:17:53What's gonna happen after the interview?
01:17:57Well, in a couple of weeks,
01:17:59we'll probably have to attend a hearing on your behalf
01:18:01where I'll get a chance to share my side
01:18:03and your caseworker will share her side.
01:18:06And what if we don't win?
01:18:08Oh, don't worry, we will win.
01:18:10But just in case,
01:18:12do I have to go back with Clarice?
01:18:14Oh, no.
01:18:16I don't want to do this again.
01:18:19What's gonna happen to my aunt and uncle?
01:18:22Honestly, that's a decision a judge is gonna have to make.
01:18:25And that is not our concern right now, you are.
01:18:28And if you're all all right with it,
01:18:31we'd like to be the ones to look after you.
01:18:34You already have been.
01:18:37Well, I don't mean just for the weekend.
01:18:39I mean, I think we could be your foster family,
01:18:42if that's okay.
01:18:46Break it in.
01:18:53What are you...?
01:18:55Oh, would you just smile?
01:18:57I am.
01:18:59Hmm? Hmm?
01:19:01Ugh.
01:19:03She is ruining our lives, dragging our names through the mud.
01:19:06We're gonna stop her.
01:19:08When's our lawyer get here?
01:19:10He's on his way.
01:19:12Oh, that's good.
01:19:14Thank you so much.
01:19:16Absolutely, little brat.
01:19:19Shut your mouth.
01:19:21Someone will hear you.
01:19:23Yes, dear.
01:19:25Oh, sweetie.
01:19:28I'll walk you out.
01:19:30Dr. Bailey's waiting over here.
01:19:32It's okay.
01:19:34So, not too bad?
01:19:36It was fine.
01:19:38Good, good. Hard part's over.
01:19:41Is it?
01:19:44Well, one of the hard parts.
01:19:47How do you feel?
01:19:50Hopeful, I guess is the word.
01:19:53I just...
01:19:57What?
01:20:01I'm nervous.
01:20:03I can understand that.
01:20:05You've got a lot of changes going on in your life right now.
01:20:08But I'm not just nervous for me.
01:20:12I'm nervous for them, too.
01:20:15Does that make any sense?
01:20:17I mean, I realize that they didn't treat me the way that they were supposed to, but...
01:20:21But you still care for them.
01:20:23Yeah.
01:20:25I mean, sort of.
01:20:29Is that weird?
01:20:31Brian was right about you.
01:20:33You are a unique person.
01:20:35With a kind heart.
01:20:37Whatever it is you're feeling, it's okay.
01:20:41I think the kids have a movie night planned.
01:20:44Maybe we ought to get home and see what they've picked.
01:21:02So this is what a movie night is really like.
01:21:06Yeah.
01:21:09Cool.
01:21:30I don't know what to say to that.
01:21:36What's his number? I'll text him.
01:21:38What? No.
01:21:40What are you going to say?
01:21:43Don't worry. May I?
01:21:45Shh. You guys are being too loud.
01:21:47Sorry.
01:21:58Happy?
01:22:00It's better than what I would have said.
01:22:03Shh.
01:22:05Ronnie, you've seen this movie at least a hundred times.
01:22:07Do you really need us to be quiet?
01:22:09Stop talking now, people.
01:22:11Sure.
01:22:13It's her favorite part.
01:22:16So this is what a movie night is really like.
01:22:21Pretty much. Popcorn, fighting, and movies you've seen a hundred times.
01:22:30Hi.
01:22:32Yeah, I'm fine.
01:22:34Brian said that you...
01:22:37He was being serious, wasn't he?
01:22:39Yeah.
01:22:40And when you called, you needed my help.
01:22:44Yeah.
01:22:45Indy, I don't know what to say.
01:22:48I'm an idiot.
01:22:49No, you're not.
01:22:51You just had your own stuff going on.
01:22:54Speaking of which, how's your ankle?
01:22:57It's still sore, but doctor says it's nothing serious.
01:23:02Just have to take it easy for a while.
01:23:05I'm glad.
01:23:08Are you really okay?
01:23:11I mean, Brian's dad is taking care of my case, so...
01:23:17It's getting there.
01:23:20Can I see you? Are you going to be at school?
01:23:23I think I'm going to stay home.
01:23:25But take notes for me, okay?
01:23:27Yeah.
01:23:28Can I come over after school just to talk?
01:23:31Sure.
01:23:33Indy, I'm really, really...
01:23:36I know.
01:23:39See you tomorrow.
01:23:47Hey, do you have a second?
01:23:49Sure. Is everything okay?
01:23:51Well, I've had a few friends digging into the paperwork,
01:23:57and apparently your mother had a $300,000 insurance policy
01:24:04that your aunt and uncle took as legal guardians to raise you.
01:24:10To raise me?
01:24:14And they had all this money the whole time?
01:24:17Did you see any of it?
01:24:20Never.
01:24:22That's the issue.
01:24:24On top of selling everything? All my mom's stuff?
01:24:29Unfortunately, yes.
01:24:32But it's all going to come up in court.
01:24:37Why do they see me as such a burden?
01:24:42I'm sorry.
01:24:45On the bright side, you will likely win all of that money back,
01:24:49and then some, in court.
01:24:51It's not going to look good for your aunt and uncle.
01:24:54Thank you.
01:25:02The water looks nice.
01:25:06Feeling any better?
01:25:10I always thought they treated me the way they did
01:25:13because I cost them too much money.
01:25:16Now I know that's not the case.
01:25:19It's their loss.
01:25:21You have nothing but goodness in your heart.
01:25:24Besides, you didn't deserve the way they treated you.
01:25:30I don't know if I could ever face them again.
01:25:34And I have to see Jada and Caitlin every day at school.
01:25:38True.
01:25:40But the school year is almost over.
01:25:43It is a big school.
01:25:47With the school year almost being over,
01:25:51there's this thing that starts with a P.
01:25:56Party?
01:25:58Close. Prom.
01:26:03What about it?
01:26:05You should go.
01:26:09Jada and Caitlin have been preparing for prom for months.
01:26:12Then imagine their faces when you walk in
01:26:15with whatever killer dress you pick.
01:26:18With me.
01:26:20With you?
01:26:22If you'll go with me.
01:26:24But my cousins...
01:26:26Well, I just wanted to go with you, but hey,
01:26:30if you want to make it a group date with your cousins, then...
01:26:36Did you really just ask me to prom?
01:26:40Yeah.
01:26:42Yeah, I did.
01:26:44Yes.
01:26:46I can go.
01:26:48I don't have to do chores.
01:26:50I'm not grounded.
01:26:52I don't have to make dinner for my cousins or their dates.
01:26:57I'd love to.
01:27:02Do I have to wear a dress with heels?
01:27:05I'll wear the dress.
01:27:07Please don't make me wear heels.
01:27:09I'm a guy.
01:27:11I don't care what shoes you wear.
01:27:14Hey, Indy.
01:27:16There's a boy here who wants to talk to you.
01:27:19Oh.
01:27:21Maxton.
01:27:24Whew.
01:27:36Hi.
01:27:38Some new digs, huh?
01:27:40This place is cool.
01:27:42The Bailey's are really nice, Pepe.
01:27:44Yeah, I can't compete with that.
01:27:48What are you talking about?
01:27:50Look, you, uh...
01:27:52You have Bryant now.
01:27:55And...
01:27:57I'm stupid...
01:27:59for not asking you out sooner.
01:28:02Look, Indy.
01:28:04Spending these last few years with you was...
01:28:07really a dream come true for me.
01:28:12You made it worth going to school every day.
01:28:15Really?
01:28:17Yeah.
01:28:18I mean...
01:28:20I wish I'd done more.
01:28:22And been more of what you needed.
01:28:24But I didn't...
01:28:26I didn't know what that was.
01:28:28You were exactly what I needed.
01:28:31You helped me through some of the hardest times I've ever had.
01:28:36You made me forget how bad my life really was.
01:28:42Did you really get removed from the house because of abuse?
01:28:47Yeah.
01:28:49Did they...
01:28:51hurt you?
01:28:53Why didn't you tell me?
01:28:55I could've... I could've helped.
01:28:57I could've done something.
01:28:59My case is more emotional abuse.
01:29:02Which I didn't know you could take somebody to court for.
01:29:07But I'm safe now.
01:29:10Dr. Bailey's helping me.
01:29:13He seems decent.
01:29:16I'm happy for you.
01:29:18Are you gonna change schools, or...
01:29:21I thought about it, but since Dr. Bailey works at the school,
01:29:25I figured...
01:29:27I better stay.
01:29:29Well, I'm glad you're staying.
01:29:32Even if it's not with me.
01:29:34Max...
01:29:35Hey, it's okay.
01:29:37This is the part where you tell me you're going with the handsome prince
01:29:40and not the regular dude.
01:29:44I'm sorry.
01:29:45Don't be.
01:29:47It might not have been legit, but...
01:29:50you were mine for years, and I don't...
01:29:52I don't need more than that.
01:29:55You deserve more than that.
01:29:59And you'll have it someday.
01:30:04Just not with you.
01:30:08You know what you will have?
01:30:11A best friend.
01:30:15Promise me...
01:30:17that you'll stay my best friend.
01:30:20Friends for life?
01:30:22Forever.
01:30:35As I watched him walk away,
01:30:37I fully expected things to be awkward here and there,
01:30:40especially if he and Bryant were in the same room.
01:30:43But Maxton has been such a huge part of my life for so long,
01:30:47and we were learning now what love really was.
01:30:50I think that'll help us both.
01:30:53We'll be fine.
01:30:58As luck would have it,
01:31:00Dr. Bailey wasn't just good at his job.
01:31:03He was really good.
01:31:06Between his testimony and the state's investigation,
01:31:08my aunt and uncle not only lost custody of me,
01:31:11they were ordered to make payments
01:31:13to pay back my mom's life insurance policy,
01:31:15as well as another big sum
01:31:17to make up for the missing assets
01:31:19and any emotional trauma they caused.
01:31:22I couldn't touch most of it until I was 18,
01:31:25but holy smokes, I was loaded.
01:31:30The first thing I did was get a set of wheels.
01:31:34Bryant's dad assured me it was a good deal.
01:31:37He also told me it'd be wise not to spend all my money at once.
01:31:42Funny thing was, I never cared about the money,
01:31:46never even thought I had any.
01:31:48I only wanted to belong.
01:31:54I did move out to the pool house, though.
01:31:57Since Bryant and I were dating,
01:31:59I figured it was the right thing to do.
01:32:02We all have dreams.
01:32:05All of us want to be singers, dancers, astronauts, whatever.
01:32:10After losing my mom, this was mine.
01:32:15To have a family again.
01:32:32Wow.
01:32:34Yeah.
01:32:37Whoa, whoa, whoa, you're not doing prom stuff without me, are you?
01:32:41Dad, you and your pictures.
01:32:43Ah, yeah, you don't go to prom without pictures.
01:32:46And a little...
01:32:49battery issue.
01:32:51Hang on just a sec.
01:32:57Do you know how beautiful you are?
01:33:01For the first time, I feel beautiful.
01:33:04And that's all because of you.
01:33:07No, not me.
01:33:12You've always been this way.
01:33:16You know, if it wasn't for Mrs. Wiggins,
01:33:19I don't think we'd be here today.
01:33:22So I got you something.
01:33:24Wait here.
01:33:46Oh, she's beautiful.
01:33:50Thank you.
01:33:55This is the happiest moment of my life.
01:33:58I'm gonna be competing with the cat for your attention, aren't I?
01:34:02She's not the only reason why I'm happy.
01:34:06You know, problem solved. Picture time.
01:34:10Oh, yeah. Bryant's got two dates.
01:34:14And... nice.
01:34:17Ah, nice.
01:34:20Oh, look at that.
01:34:22Ronnie, get in here.
01:34:27Now you, Dr. Bailey.
01:34:30Oh, okay. You insist.
01:34:33Think that's the button?
01:35:14Oh, yeah.
01:35:44Oh, yeah.
01:36:14Oh, yeah.
01:36:44Oh, yeah.
