We threw it away when I was little.
I was standing on it and it busted.

- Remember, Dad?
- Vaguely.

I guess that's all, then.

Thank you both for your time.

Hey. What's the deal
with this chest, anyway?

One just like you had
washed up on Torch Lake.

- It had a woman in it.
- A woman?

She was all chopped up.

Obviously, we need to talk.

You lied to me.
You said it was a man in the box.

No, I didn't lie.

The policeman said it was
a woman's body. You were lying.

I told you a detective came
to take you away.

I never said it was a man.

- You didn't?
- No.

- L-I thought that...
- No.

Stop. Please stop. I...

I know you're lying to me, OK?
I know that you're lying.

For the last time, someone came
and tried to take you away...

Yes, a woman.

- A woman came.
- Yes, she tried to steal you.

From the only family
that you'd ever really known.

And we couldn't let that happen.
And we didn't.

And that...

...is the truth.

[Rex] We can't cancel now.
It's two days away.

I'm not going.
That's all there is to it.

Counseling is part of the treatment
at Camp Hennessy.

Nowhere in that brochure
did it say we're expected to attend.

What'll Andrew think
if you don't show up?

I'm making him this care package.
He'll know that I'm thinking about him.

Why are you putting in lemon squares?
They told us not to send him sweets.

I don't understand why.

I guess they feel baked goods from Mom
undercut the boot-camp experience.

Fine, I won't send them.
But I think it's a stupid rule.

Are you going to this thing or not?

- No
- Why?

Because the minute I get there,
Andrew will start...

...attacking me for abandoning him.

- And I don't want to hear it.
- There's no reason to feel guilty.

You did everything you could for him.

I don't feel guilty.

OK.

Please, Christy.

There's no way I can get another
babysitter this late in the day.

- Parker, knock it off.
- No.

Because I'm having drinks
with friends I used to work with.

They never call
and if I blow them off,

that's it, I'm dead to them.

[Children yell]

No, I can't call Patty Binks.

Because she steals things.
Damn it, Christy, you're 13.

You got a lot of trips to the mall
ahead of you.

OK, I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I raised my voice. I'm calm.

So I'm starting to think
that this is about money.

So what is it that will make it
worth your while?

A hundred! That's extortion.
There's no way in hell that I'm gonna...

Hello?

Hello?

Parker, I swear I will spank you.
Knock it off.

[Phone beeps]

Hi, Mrs. Binks.
Is Patty there? Thank you.

Hi, honey. I'm back.

Hey, sweetie.

This is Mr. Steinberg,
the attorney from the hospital.

- Oh, have we met?
- Yes, Mrs. Solis. We've met.

Don't you remember?

It was after Mama died.

Apparently the hospital was negligent

and agreed to
a seven-figure settlement check.

A check I was never told about.

Oh, that.

I...

- Mr. Steinberg...
- I was just leaving.

- What were you thinking?!
- Let me explain.

- Why the hell didn't you tell me?!
- You wouldn't make the right decision.

The right decision
was to use that money for my lawyers,

to fight the indictment
instead of taking the plea bargain.

The government would have
seized the settlement.

- We could have fought that in court.
- And you would have blown the money.
