Don't go yet. I need to talk to you.
It's important. Please.

I married Diego Solis when I was 1 6 years old.

A few months into our marriage, he started to beat me.

I didn't know what to do.

Juanita, I had no idea.

It got so bad that I started praying to God to let me die.

But God, in his infinite wisdom, gave me a reason to live.

Carlos.

Ah, he was a beautiful baby.

But my husband wasn't much of a father.

He never held him. He would yell and scream at him for no reason at all.

One night, when Carlos was four,

Diego Solis came home drunk.

He beat my Carlos.

Something inside me snapped.

At that moment, I found a way to be strong.

So I made sure that Diego Solis

never hurt my son or me ever again.

What did you do?

Well, if you pray hard enough, God gives you the tools to your salvation.

Carlos said that his father left for a waitress in El Paso.

Mm-hm. That's what he was told.

All mothers know they have to protect their children.

But some of us take our job more seriously than others.

I don't know why you're telling me this.

I think you do.

[metal scrapes]

OK. I know you're mad at me.

I'm sorry I didn't stop you going out with that guy.

I'm not just mad at you. I'm mostly mad at myself.

- OK. - I'm mad that I like you so much

without knowing anything about you.

Oh. What do you want to know?

- What's your favorite food? - Mexican.

- Favorite sport? - Football.

- Favorite band? - Elvis Costello.

- That's a guy, not a band. - It's a guy with a band.

What do you think of me?

I'm sorry, could you repeat that?

- [Zach] I don't want to talk about it. - [Paul] This is insane!

- [Zach] Do you even care about me? - [Paul] Do not talk that way!

[glass smashes]

- Mrs. Van De Kamp. - Hi, Zach.

I wanted to see if everything was all right.

- Everything's fine. - Are you sure?

Yes.

Well, OK. I'll see you tomorrow then.

I'm sure that you will.

People by their very nature are always on the lookout for intruders...

trying to prevent those on the outside from getting in.

But there will always be those who force their way into our lives,

just as there will be those we invite in.

Hi.

But the most troubling of all

will be the ones who stand on the outside looking in.

The ones we never truly get to know.
