"I cannot keep track of her." "She is always running around." "She is probably digging in her garden." "Well, that is what you get for marrying a girl off the farm."

"My party." "Party?" "Is it your birthday?" "Come on!" "Do you want to see one of your presents now?" "Can I see?" "A bike!" "My own bike!" "With tassels and everything."

"No, I do have Charlie." "It is okay." "You can take her back." "Get her ready for the party." "I am sorry about the bike." "I really could not help it." "In addition, we have to trust her at some point." "You are right." "Kids have bikes." "All right, Sully, let us get ready for your party." "In addition, do not worry." "I got her a helmet, knee pads." "I also got her a suit of armor." "Very funny." "Bye." " Bye." " Bye." "People, slow down!" "No running!" "The more they run around, the better they sleep." "I am going to be the one that needs the sleep." "Well, you cannot stop them anyway, so live and let live, I say." "Yeah, tell that to Robert." "I am telling you, Julia, he babies that girl way more than I do." "He checks her blood sugar like every five minutes in addition, does not even trust the test." "He is just scared, that is all."

"Good for him." "Yeah." "I think it is the day, too." "He remembers the accident still cannot forgive him." "That was five years ago." "Believe me, I have moved on." "However, you know, he is just not there yet." "How is the baby search going?" "Sarah!" "I would get out here." "Someone's about to open their presents without you." "We will be there in a minute." "Actually, the agency called, in addition, they have a new birth mother they want us to meet." "Robert has hated them all, right?" "Yeah." "I mean, I have not been too crazy about any of them either, but apparently this woman is really just jumping at the chance to meet us, so..." "Maybe she is the one." "I hope so." "I really think another baby will bring the old Robert back." "I remember that person." "He used to dance around this kitchen to corny old music." "Yeah." "Seems like a million years ago." "We pulled that off, another year." "All those kids." "She never stopped running around." "No wonder she passed out like a log." "A happy log." "You seem distracted." "It is this deadline." "I have to get the book to the publisher by the end of the month." "Therefore, it is just the book then." "Okay, Sarah, you know it is the day." "It always has this effect on me." "Yeah, but maybe every year gets a little easier." "That is just it." "I think it is actually getting worse." "I can still picture the accident like it was yesterday." "You should not." "I knew the dock was rotten." "Robert, stop beating yourself up." "You know what happens." "I am trying." "I believe you." "It is not just you I am thinking about." "Do not you think I know?" "It is Sully." "I cannot stop worrying about her." "The diabetes." "She eat too much cake when I was not looking." "She is too active." "It is driving me insane." "I hope that you will like this birth mother tomorrow." "I think having a second baby around here will really restore the balance." "I know." "In addition, we have tried everything." "You know I cannot have children." "You are right." "I think it is the day, this book." "It's just all too much stress." "You know, I know an old-fashioned remedy for stress." " Really?" " Yes." "Old family secret?" "Yeah, it has been in the family for years." "I am all yours, doctor." " Hello, there." " Helen, hi." "Welcome." "Do not mind me." "I was just watering." "This is Bridgette." "Hello." "I thought houses like this only existed in the movies." "Thanks." "Yeah, we are proud of it." "Come on in." "Is Robert here?" "Yeah, we are expecting both of you." "Can I get you anything?" "Coffee for me." "My husband should be down in a second." " Here you go." " Thank you." "You sure I cannot get you anything." "Yeah." "I just had a shake and some fries before I got here." "Your daughter?" "Yeah." "Sully." "She is our world." " She is beautiful." " Thanks." "You like children." "Yes." "One day, I want to have a big family." "I mean, when I am ready." "Of course!" "Hello, everyone." "Robert, this is Bridgette." "Bridgette..." "Bridgette Gibson." " Hello." " Hi." "Look what I did!" "It is quite all right." "No, no." "I will go get a broom." "I am so stupid." "I do not want you to cut yourself." "It is fine." "I am so sorry, sir." "No, please, call me Robert." "Please sit down." "So, tell us about yourself." "Right now, I live in Idaho Falls." "I was going to college, however, I ended up dropping out because I could not afford it." "I was going to take out one of those student loans, however, I really hate being in debt." "Sounds like you read one of my husband's books." "People who read his books are afraid of being in debt." "That is not true." "My books preach fiscal responsibility, that is all." "I did read one of your books, Mr. Benson." ""Not Just a Four-Letter Word?"" "Yes, of course." "I am actually a big fan." " See?" "What would I tell you?" " Very smart." "I am just trying to save up my money so that I can get out of my current living situation." "What is your current?" "Living situation?" "I am in a shelter." "It is okay, though." "Just okay?" "I mean the food isn't that great in addition, I do not sleep that well." "I do worry about this little guy." "How so?" "I mean, it would probably be better if I could rest a little more." "Therefore, you say it is a boy." "Yeah, a boy." "How far along are you?" "Six months." "Is it hard?" "You know, in the beginning, there is morning sickness and..." "I know why you wanted to meet me." "In addition, any parent adopting a child would." "I am the same." "When I got a call from the agency saying they had found a couple," "I just wanted to be sure." "I love my baby, and if I could afford to live in a house like this in addition, give him a life like you, two could..." "I know in my heart what I am doing is right." "So the agency will contact you both if it is a fit in addition, if Bridgette agrees." "Fingers crossed, however, it looks positive." "Daddy, look what I can do." "Where is your helmet?" "I am so sorry." "I am over-protective when it comes to kids." "No, do not be sorry, Ms. Gibson." "Sully..." "I do not like it on my head." "Here, let me." "Let us keep that head of yours safe therefore, you grow up smart like your mom and dad." "Is she going to be okay?" "In that shelter?" "It really is the best place for her." "I am ahead of my wife on this one." "What if she was to stay with us?" "People do that, right." "Yes, it done all the time, however, you should take time in addition, think about it." "What do you think?" "About that, Bridgette?" "I was not paying attention." "If we were to decide to go through with it, would you be comfortable?" "Living here with us." "We would make it very comfortable for you." "I would not want to bother you guys." "Why do not you think about it?" "So?" "Are you going to say anything?" "About what?" "You know about what." "I like her." "I liked her a lot." "It is just a big decision." "Sarah, it's just we don't even know if she is going to like us." "Robert, you are just scared." "Besides, what's not to like about us?" "Well, if she's read one of my books, she cannot be that bad." "I think we are going to be very happy." "Hi." "Welcome to our home." "No more heavy lifting for you." "Give me those." "I am okay." "You had better listen to him." "He is not going to let you out of his sight for the next three months." "Finally, this is your room." "Hope you like it." "The bathroom's in there, and extra towels, I think, are in here." " It is nice." "It is so big." " Thanks." "Robert and I added it on when we thought we were having a second child." "I guess maybe me never stopped believing that this would be a baby's room again." "Now it will be." "Thank you." "I can't tell you how much this means to my family and me." " Hey, you." " Hey, Mommy." "Hey, you remember Sully." "Of course!" "How's the bike-riding going?" "Okay." "My dad would not take off my training wheels." "My daddy would not either, however, I am sure he will come around." "Yeah, do not be so sure." "Is that a baby in there?" "Yeah, it is your baby brother." "Do you want to feel?" "Okay, maybe next time." "I do not feel him kicking now anyways." "All right, well, let's check your pump and get you some breakfast." "Okay." "Can I get you anything?" "I could go for a giant bowl of ice cream." "Sorry." "We do not keep a lot of sugary things in the house." "Because of her." "She is diabetic." "However, I am sure I can find you something." "Actually, I am good." "Yeah." "Just to warn you," "I am one of those organic food people." "What can I say?" "You okay." "Yeah." "I think I need to rest." "Okay." " Hello?" " We are in the guest room." "Charlie helps me at the farm stand." "You will love him." "Bridgette." "Thank God you are finally here." "Maybe the boss woman will relax a little." "Yeah, do not count on it." "Did you see how many orders?" "Of pumpkin bread, we got." "Work, work, work." "If I didn't love her so much, I would kill her." "Okay, we are going to leave you alone." "Great meeting you." "You will be seeing too much of me around here." "In addition, you will be seeing excessively much of me." "I like her." "All right, we are suffocating you now." "Okay, bye." "Robert..." "What a mess." "Was thinking of having Sully?" "Help me out at the farm stands today." "Get her out of your hair in addition, let you write in peace." "That would be great." "I could use the peace and quiet." "Hi." "Good morning." "Good morning." "I do not usually sleep in this late." "You can sleep as late as you want." "I am sure you are really tired from yesterday." "I was out like a light." "That bed is so comfortable." "In addition, it is so peaceful here." "So what can we get you?" "Do not bother." "I do not really eat breakfast." "Nothing." "I cannot make you some eggs." "Hot cereal?" "Anything?" "Some coffee, but I am not hungry." "You have to eat for the baby as well." "You had better listen to her." "She is bossier than her mother is." "Okay, you win." "What should I have?" "Cereal." "I bet cereal is good for babies." "Okay, cereal it is." "Do not indulge her." "You will never hear the end of it." "She will give you more advice than a pediatrician." "Therefore, Sully and I are going to go into town today." "I have a farm stand there." "Do you want to go?" "Into town with us?" "You should come!" "You could work at the stand like me." "Ladies, let the girl rest." "How about this?" "We will come into town later for lunch." "That is a good idea." "Meanwhile, you settled." "Yeah, I think that would be better." "In addition, I saw you people have a dock out there." "I would love to go down there and read." "The dock is off-limits." "It is too dangerous." "All right." "Well, we should get going." "Charlie likes to have help setting up." "Let us get your coloring books." "Okay." "Stay close to your mother." "Do not forget your emergency snack." "Okay." "Bye, Bridgette." "Bye, Sully." "Thanks for the advice." "So what did the publisher say?" "They are fine with cutting that chapter, Robert, however, they are hoping for a late fall release." "I know." "I am working as fast as I can, Deb." "That is not why I called you, Robert and you know it." "The answer is no." "Robert, we sell twice as many of your books if you do a book tour." "I make enough, okay?" "In addition, I have said it a billion times." "No more book tours." "Those days are over." "Why do you hate your readers?" "I love my readers." "I just do not have the stamina to go on the road again, especially after last time." "Come on, Robert." "You are not fooling me." "No one partied as hard as you did on the road." "Is that what that was?" "Partying." "I believe they have a clinical name for it." "If you recall, I blacked out last time." "Fine, so lay off the booze." "However, you still have groupies, in addition, they want to see you." "Debbie." "Fine, I am done." "I will wait for the pages." "They want a corrected proof in a month." "Do not remind me." "Bye, Deb." "Bye." "Love you." "Come in." "I am so sorry to bother you." "I was going to sit out on the patio in the sun, and I was wondering if you have any sun block in the house." "Sun block?" "Yeah." "I did it." "I am totally bothering you." "No, no, no." "It is just when I come in here," "I go to a different place, that is all." "The life of a writer." "It must get hard, Robert." "Hard?" "It is sometimes." "Alone all the time." "Sun block." "Follow me." "I know she keeps bug spray in here, so I am assuming we will find sun block." "Honestly, I could get rid of half this stuff in addition, I do not think anyone would notice." "I found a box of Christmas lights." "Perfect." "Oh, if you need gardening gloves, there is a whole bag over here." "There is more stuff in here than my last apartment." "If you see bug spray, it should be close by." "Here is bug spray." "Okay, it should be right by the bug spray." "I do not see it." " Sunscreen." " Awesome." "SPF-30." "That is enough." "Yeah, it will do." "If you need anything else, batteries, lighter fluid, it should all be in here." "I will keep that in mind." " Coffee." " You are a lifesaver." "Gosh, we had a pretty good crowd this morning." "Yeah, best little farm stand in Storm Lake." "Robert is bringing Bridgette into town for lunch." "So what is she like?" "She is quiet." "You know, I think she is getting used to us." "In addition, you just leave her alone in the house with Robert?" "She is six months pregnant." "Some men like that." "How would you know?" "Look, gay people live in the same world as everyone else." "She is not his type." "You are right." "Men hate gorgeous women." "No wonder she knocked up." "Charlie!" "I feel sorry for her, poor girl." "Look, you are doing a beautiful thing." "And knowing Robert, he is probably hiding in his attic too afraid to even talk to her." "We should get going if you want to do lunch in town." "I keep falling asleep." "We do not have to go." "I could make you some lunch here." "Yeah, I think that might be better." "I just do not know if I am feeling up to it." "I will just text Sarah in addition, let her know." "She will not be disappointed, She will." "Sarah?" "No." "She never stops working, in addition, that is the way she likes it." "No..." "I am." "What do you think?" "I am doing." "I know, but these things take time." "Would you stop freaking out?" "Bridgette?" "Hi." "Hi." "Charlie." "Sarah and Robert's friend?" "My God." "I am so sorry." "I was on the phone in addition, my mind was a million miles away." "Do not stress about it." "I am completely forgettable." "You getting your morning fix." "Yeah, I do not operate without my coffee." "Same." "Therefore, how's life cooped up in the Benson mansion?" "I love it." "Robert is so nice." "Listen, you should really, be careful." "Robert has a really violent temper, in addition, the police in this town have 24 h surveillance on him." "For what?" "I am totally kidding." "He is like the nicest man in the world." "Maybe a little reserved, but everyone has their demons, right?" "Yeah, I guess." "Can I feel?" "I am sorry." " No, I am sorry." " No, I am sorry." "It is totally fine." "It makes me uncomfortable." "Yeah, of course it would." "I mean, strangers coming up to you feeling your belly?" "It is weird." " Miss, large latte?" " Yeah." "Charlie, leave my customers alone." "Do not get on her bad side." "She will spit in your coffee." "It was nice seeing you." "Yeah." "I am sure I will see you around." "Cannot avoid." "Therefore, Bridgette, you have been here for a few days." "What do you think?" "Of our little town?" "It is like a little dream town." "Everyone is so friendly." "I feel like I could live here." "We like it." "I had coffee at the little cafe in town, then I went into some shops." "It's tourist season right now." "People come here for the lake." "Robert hates them, but I kind of like it when the town picks up." "I do not hate them." "I just don't like the big motors on the lake." "It is too loud." "Robert is trying to regulate the size of the motor you can have on the lake." "It is a political thing, and if you're not on Robert's side, you are an idiot." "They are idiots." "I am trying to help them save their town." "See, I think I prefer peace and quiet, too." "I had this boyfriend once who had a big loud boat?" "In addition, every weekend, we would go up to this lake by us, in addition, he would make me sit on the front in a bikini just to show me off." "I knew how to picking." "So you ran into Charlie today." "Yes, I did." "He is the best." "He has been working for me for about four years." "I used to sell organic fruits and vegetables out of the back of my truck," "In addition, Charlie was the one that got me thinking bigger." "Sarah's about to open two new stands in nearby towns." "If this continues, I may be able to retire." "What would you do?" "If you could retire?" "Exactly what I am doing now." "I would write and make sure this little girl has everything she needs." "Do not forget about my new baby brother." "You are right." "Sarah can work, and I will stay at home with the two kids." "That sounds perfect." "Can I say something?" "When I first got here," "I guess I was a little scared," "Because this is really a big decision." "However, you people are so nice in addition, you really do have the perfect life." "I know my baby could not be in a happier place." "I cannot tell you how happy you have made us." "In addition, you are going to have a perfect life, too, one day, I promise." "I hope it is in a town like this with a family like yours." "You bet." "Okay." "Right there." "Right there?" "Yes." "Okay." "I am going to hold you to start." "Okay, I am going to let go in 1, 2, 3." "Okay, do not get too, close to the road!" "Sully!" "Dwayne?" "So a girl got to be more careful." "What are you doing here?" "I am just checking up on my two favorite babes." "It is a nice house." "Yeah, well, you cannot be here." "I told you to wait for me at the cabin." "Little girl." "What is your name?" "Dwayne, cut it out." "You have to go." "Okay, okay." "Now." "I will see you soon." "Go." "It was nice meeting you." "Do you know that man?" "Sort of." "He scared me." "I know, but he has gone now." "Men like that, you have to be careful, Sully." "Most of them just want to use you." "Did you see?" "I rode my bike without the training wheels." "I did, yeah." "However, listen, if your daddy caught you, he would not be happy." "So how about we just make this our little secret for a while, okay?" "However, I want to show him." "I know, but if he finds out you took the training wheels off, he might take your bike away." " He will." " Yes." "So do not tell anybody about the training wheels or the man that was just here." "Okay." "Okay, but you cannot tell anyone either." "Cross my heart." "Coffee break in 10 minutes?" "Yeah." "Can we make it five?" "How is Bridgette working out?" "She is great." "She and Sully are practically best friends." "What does Robert think?" "I do not know." "He's been kind of a little shut down lately." "What do you mean?" "It is as if he is afraid alternatively, something." "Afraid of what?" "Everything." "Life, having fun, Sully." "He worries about her so much, I do not know what to do." "Maybe he should see a therapist." "You know Robert." "He thinks therapists are for sick people." "Typical." "I really thought bringing Bridgette into the house and adopting this baby would sort of pull him out of it you, you know." "However, it is almost like it has made it worse." "Even I have noticed that Robert is been a little off lately." "Is everything okay?" "Yeah." "I think he just stressed." "Yeah, once we have the baby," "I feel like we'll all find some peace." " That is how it works?" " Yeah, all right." "Go get your coffee, smart-ass." "Hello." "You startled me." "I was daydreaming." "I do that a lot." "Wishing you was on the lake." "Gosh, no." "Sit." "The truth is, I'm actually afraid to get on the water." "Afraid?" "Some years ago, Sarah had an accident." "Accident?" "The dock broke." "She hit her head in addition, fell in the water." "She was six months pregnant." "We lost the child." "You must have been so tortured." "The worst part is." "I blame her." "I know it was an accident." "If she just hadn't acted so foolishly..." "Yeah." "I just cannot seem to get past that." "Sometimes I think I may never love her the way I used to." "It is funny." "I've never told anyone that before." "Maybe you feel safe around me." "Maybe." "Robert, are you happy?" "Happy?" "I am not sure." "Sometimes I am, I guess." "What about you?" "Are you happy?" "I think that soon I will be very happy." "You really are a strange girl." "Hey, Charlie." "Good morning." "Coffee for me, decaf for Sarah." "You got it." "How is work today?" "Charlie?" "Your coffees?" "You have not turned the page in five minutes." "Is everything okay?" "Everything is fine." "Okay." "I was in the pantry today in addition, I found an unopened box of chocolates." "It was probably a gift alternatively, something." "Come on, Sarah." "If Sully were to find that, you know exactly what would happen?" "Robert, what is going on?" "You know the dangers of diabetic keto acidosis." "In addition, Sully knows not to eat candy unless we say it is okay." "You have to trust her." "She is six." "I cannot take this anymore, Robert, with all this worrying." "Ever since, you got back from your last book tour, you have been completely shut down." "It is suffocating." "I have noticed it, Sully has noticed it." "Even Charlie said something to me about it." "What is going on?" "Nothing." "Nothing at all." "Bridgette?" "Sully!" "Were you spying on me?" "What is that?" "This?" "It is nothing." "Why do you wear that?" "Look, I have to tell you something, however, it needs to be our little secret." "Okay." "So some women, when they get pregnant, they have big bellies in addition, some do not." "I have a small belly." "Then why do you have that pretends one." "Because if I didn't, your parents might not believe that I have a baby, in addition, I do have a baby." " I can tell them." " No!" "No, no, no." "It has to be just between us." "Okay." "Just like your training wheels." "You do not want your dad to take your bike away, right?" "No." "Therefore, that is why you cannot say anything or something really bad is going to happen." "Pinkie promise?" "Pinkie promise." "I have an idea." "I just got a text from Bridgette." "Can we go at park?" "Robert's idea." "Want to check on you." "Of course!" "Have fun." "Great!" "Sarah asked me to take Sully to the farm stand." "She did." "Yes." "Okay." "We will see you at dinner." "Yes." "We will see you at dinner." "Bridgette?" ""To Joni." "Don't stop daring."" "It is Joni." "I did not hear what you said." "Joni Mothers?" "I was at the reading." "Not here." "It will be our little secret." "Bridgette." "Sully!" "Sarah?" "Robert?" "What are you doing here?" "Sully!" "Where is Sully?" "She is with Bridgette at the park." "She said you said it was okay." "I will be at the park." "Okay." "Is everything okay?" "In addition, where were you, Mr. Benson?" "Here in my house." "Sheriff, why aren't we out there, looking for her." "You were in the house." "What made you go out looking?" "For your daughter, Mr. Benson?" "No reason." "I am just very protective of her." "It is unusual." "Officer." "He gets very worried." "Because of her medical condition." "Yes." "Sheriff, have you issued some sort of alert?" "Are you putting up a roadblock?" "Are you organizing any sort of search party?" "We have people working on this, I can assure you." "I just want to get a clearer picture of this woman Bridgette Gibson." "That may not even be her real name." "I am sorry." "Do you know something." "No." "What is there to know?" "She has taken our child." "She is pregnant and we are adopting her baby." "We actually know very little about her." "She seems very nice." "I am sure this is just a misunderstanding." "We are wasting time." "Okay." "Our child has taken from us." "She is out there." "She is sick and she is scared." "Is there any reason at all for you to think of for Ms. Gibson to want to take your child?" "No." "She seems to like us very much." "We like her." "No." "Mr. Benson?" "Yes." "Any reason she might want to take Sully." "No, I cannot think of any." "Look, I am tired of sitting around here." "I am going to go look for her myself." "Chief, we got a picture from the agency." "Okay, great." "Let's get that out there." "Pass it along to the state." "This a current picture?" "No, that is not her." "That is the wrong photograph." "That is not Bridgette Gibson." "We double-checked." "That is Bridgette Gibson." "Is there any possibility that the woman that has been living here is not Bridgette Gibson?" "We should be long gone." "This is perfect." "Everyone is going to think we are halfway out of the state by now." "Why are we still in the area?" "We should be on our way to Kansas City alternatively, something right now." "Just stop worrying." "Okay." "I would feel a lot safer in a bigger city." "It is okay." "No one is going to be looking for us on this side of the lake, therefore, we stick to the plan." "What are you going to say?" "To her when she wakes up?" "Leave it to me." "Yeah." "Yes." "How rich are they?" "We will be getting crazy money." "Then we are out of here, right?" "Yeah, just the way we planned it." "You do not think they are looking for us." "Right." "They do not even know you exist." "I cannot wait to change." "I do not know." "I kind of liked you with a big belly." "Please." "Just saying." "Do not start." "This is ridiculous." "Robert, please do not." "Sarah, come on." "One drink." "I am going crazy." "We cannot just sit here." "There is we can do nothing." "What are you doing?" "I am making a flyer." "I could not think of anything else." "I do not know." "I am going to put them everywhere tomorrow." "I let you down." "I let everybody down." "Robert, please don't be so hard on yourself." "It is not helpful." "You do not understand, Sarah." "I know her." "What?" "I think I know her." "Bridgette." "I was on a book tour, the last one." "When we lost the baby, I went crazy in addition, I said yes to every book tour." "I think it was a way for me to get rid of the memory." "In addition, I drank." "I drank every night out on the road because I hated myself." "I hated everything." "The accident..." "It was as if I was trying to kill myself." "In addition, I hated you for falling that day." "Robert..." "I slept with her." "You slept with Bridgette." "I was drunk." "I was wrong." "I do not know what made me do it." "This morning, I went into her room." "I knew something was not right." "I found my book." "Inside I had written a note to some girl named Joni." "And all of a sudden, it came flooding back." "I do not understand." "The picture the sheriff showed us is probably the real Bridgette." "The girl who has been living with us named Joni." "What does she want with us?" "Why did she steal Sully?" "I do not know." "Revenge?" "How could you do this?" "I do not have an answer." "I was lost." "Why did not you just talk to me?" "Do not I matter?" "Sarah, I did something that I can never take back, in addition, it consumes me every day." "I know you hate me, however, I hate myself more." "If you think, I hate you for cheating on me, you underestimate me." "I hate you for endangering our child." "My baby is out there without her medicine with a crazy woman because of you!" "You did this!" "How could you do this?" "To our family?" "Baby, how you feeling?" "Your hair." "You look different." "Do you like it?" "I changed it." "Girls do that all the time." "Where am I?" "We are at my friend's house." "We had so much fun last night." "Do you remember?" "Where are mommy and daddy?" "They had an emergency, therefore, they asked me to watch you." "What kind of emergency?" "Their friend is sick in addition, he is in the hospital, therefore, they are going to be gone for a few days." "Should not we go home?" "In addition, wait for them." "No." "I thought that you and I could play house here." "You, all day and me." "Does not that sound fun?" "My tummy hurts." "Yeah?" "Okay, I am going to go get you something for your tummy." "You just stay here." "Okay." " Okay." " Okay." "I messed up." "Why?" "What is going on?" "I should have grabbed her medicine for her pump before I left the house." "Hold on." "I can go get some medicine." "No, that is not going to work." "It is prescription, dummy." "Well, what does she have?" "She is some kind of diabetic." "Hell, my brother had that." "Yeah, it is low blood sugar." "We used to give him a couple candy bars moreover, he would be good to go." "She does not look too good." "Seeing as how you can't go into town," "I guess I will have to go get us some candy, then." "Thank you." "In the meantime, you call that daddy of hers and tell him his little girl is sick in addition, needs his help." "Yeah." "Moreover, tell him to get his some money too." "Therefore, you saw this girl Bridgette get out of a truck." "What kind of truck?" "Just a regular pickup truck." "What make?" "I do not know." "Older." "Not too old." "It was green and white." "You get a license plate number." "No." "It happened fast." "All right, tell me about the person." "He was scruffy." "Had a five o'clock shadow." "He was wearing jeans." "Maybe cowboy boots." "He was somewhat handsome in that redneck kind of way." "He was young, about her age." "She definitely knew him." "Why did not you tell the Bensons?" "You saw Bridgette with a strange man?" "Robert, Mr. Benson, would freak out." "He is a bundle of nerves." "You afraid of him?" "Mr. Benson?" "No." "Has he ever been violent around you?" "No." "Look." "You are barking up the wrong tree." "Mr. Benson might be a little cold, however, he would never hurt Sully." "Well, from what I am learning, he is got an interesting past." "I just hope she is okay." "We will find her." "Hello?" "Sarah, listen." "I headed toward the lake cabin." " What?" " I am following a person who I think may have Sully." " Charlie, I cannot." " Hello?" "Really?" "Looking for something." "Are you that stupid?" "Baby, this only makes the decision easier." "Let us just get the hell out at town." "No." "We are sticking with my plan." "Hey, Charlie." "Sully had better be alive." "She is alive." "Shut up, Dwayne." "Police are already looking for you." "They know all about your criminal friend here." "You've got a really big mouth, Charlie." "What are you going to do?" "Lock me up with Sully." "I cannot afford that." "What are you going to do?" "I am not going to do nothing." "Charlie, you were right about two things." "She is insane and I am a criminal." "No." "No, please do not." "We did some checking up with your adoption agency to see if we can locate anyone who might know Ms. Gibson?" "Yes." "I told you." "Ellen Macy." "She is the one that did the background check." "Unfortunately, we are not going to get much out of Ms. Macy now." "She is dead." "She is dead." "She found in her apartment." "Police are still investigating." "Do you recognize this man, Mrs. Benson?" "No." "I should." "He spotted with Ms. Joni Mathers by a friend of yours, Charlie Holmes." "His name is Dwayne Tisdale." "He has wanted in Texas in connection with two murders there." "What does that have to do with Bridgette?" "Joni?" "Not sure yet." "Do you know where your husband is." "Mrs. Benson?" "He is out looking for her." "We had a fight." "In light of what you told me about him and Joni, is it possible that they are together right now." "Are you sure this is a good idea." "You want your money, do not you?" "What if we just call the dad and..." "It has to be this way." "Yeah, but they're looking for you." "You feeling better, sweetie?" "I do not feel good." "I know." "I know." "I am going to go rent us a boat therefore, we can get out on the lake, okay?" "I think I need my medicine." "In addition, we are going to get some for you very soon." "However, you need to eat some candy first." "It is going to help you feel so much better." "Dwayne, the candy." "All right, just a few bites." "And then maybe you can try and sleep while I go rent us a boat." "Dwayne will be here the whole time." "My daddy will not let me go on boats." "Just because your dad is scared of the water doesn't mean your dad and I cannot go for boat rides." "In addition, when you are older, maybe I will even let you drive." "However, right now I need you to rest, okay, sweetie?" "What now, Dwayne?" "Hold up." "Come here." "Come here." "What was that all about?" "Back there." " What?" "Boat rides." " What?" "We are not keeping the kid." "Obviously." "I was just trying to make her feel good." "You are a paranoid son of a bitch." "Do not walk away from me when I am talking to you!" "Come here!" "You better not be messing around with me." "I'm in this for the money and nothing else." "Yeah, I am going to get you your money and my money." "You stay here with the girl in addition, you try to stay out of sight this time." "Okay." "Okay." "Sorry, I am closing." "Please." "I will only be an hour." "Okay." "Paddle board alternatively, canoe?" "What kind?" "I saw that you guys had outboards out there." "You know how to run them?" "How much is it?" "50." "Going fishing?" "Here are 50." "Hello, Sarah." "Bridgette, What have you done with Sully." " Please!" " She is okay." "She is okay." "My God, you are not pregnant." "No, I never was." "Do not worry about Sully." "She is fine." "She is safe." "Bridgette, please, please tell me where she is." "You are never going to see her again." "I am her new mom now." "Robert and I are going to take her away." "Robert is with you." "Yes." "He will be here soon." "Do you know how crazy this sounds." "Do not call me crazy." "Bridgette, wait!" "Please." "Shut up!" "You are pathetic." "The second I met you, I knew I did not like you." "Your stupid fruit stand in addition, your organic vegetables." "Bridgette, please!" "My name is Joni, by the way." "You need to know something, Sarah." "Robert does not love you." "He told me so." "He blames you for the accident." "In addition, he loves me." "However, why take Sully?" "What does she have to do with any of this." "That night..." "That night when he was making love to me," "I got pregnant with his child." "I carried him around for three months and I lost him." "Then right when I was feeling like a dirty little slut," "I turn on the TV in addition, I see your face and his face and his daughter's face, in addition, I did not like that very much." "I hate you for stealing him away from me." "Bridgette, please." "You are sick." "Okay." "Let me help you." "Give me the gun." "I already told you my name is Joni." "This is perfect." "Sarah is so upset about losing her baby, people are going to think it is a suicide." "Just like Charlie." "Sarah?" "Hello?" "Sarah?" "Sarah?" "Robert." "Bridgette!" "No, you can call me Joni now." "Where is Sarah?" "You do not have to worry about Sarah anymore." "It is fine." "I have Sully." "Sarah?" "No, no." "Do not you get it?" "You are free." "We are free to be happy." " What did you do to her?" " I took care of her." "Where is she?" "Robert, you are acting very strange." "Do not you get it?" "We have everything." "Okay." "We can start our lives together." "This is what we always wanted." "What about are you talking?" "You know what." "I am calling the police." "You were not happy." "You told me you were not happy." "I do not understand you." "Okay." "Do not do that!" "We do not have much time to get away." "We have to get away." "Hello, yes, can I speak to Sheriff Watson, please?" "Put the phone down!" "God." "Please do not make me shoot you again." " You are sick." " No, I am not." "Okay, Joni, put the gun down." "All right." "Let us just talk about this." "You told me you did not love her." "Tell me where Sully is, and we will forget this ever happened." "I thought this is what you wanted." "I do not understand." "Just put it down." "All right." "Robert!" "No!" "I did not mean to!" "I did not mean to." "We have to go." "Where is she?" "You got the money." "Where is Sully?" "She is in the bathroom." "She is not feeling too good." "Damn it." "I forgot her medicine." "We have to clear out." "Where is your gun?" "It is on the table." "You got the money." "Sully, baby girl!" "What happened?" "I do not feel good." "I know." "I know, baby." "Listen, baby, your daddy is dead, however, you and I are going to be fine." "We have to go." "You screwed up, did not you?" "You not got any money." "I told you what was going to happen if you messed with me!" "Now I am taking the girl." "Let her go!" "Yeah?" "Alternatively, what?" "We were not getting money out of this anyway." "It was about him the whole time." "It was about the husband." "Imagine a person like that with a crazy whore like you." "I am warning you." "What are you going to do?" "What are you going to shoot her?" "Are you going to shoot me?" "Huh?" "I said to let her go." "Yeah, I will let her go, as soon as I get my half a million." "I want my mom!" "You shot me!" "Your mommy is already dead." "I am your new mom now." "Sarah." "Sarah." "Sarah?" "Sarah?" "Jesus!" "Sarah!" "Sarah." "Sarah, breathe!" "Sarah, breathe!" "You are okay." "Robert, Robert, she has our baby." "I know." "I know." "Charlie tried to tell me about the cabin." "Across the lake?" " Yeah." " Yes?" "Robert, you are hurt." "It is my fault." "I blamed you for everything." "I was wrong." "I am so sorry." "I am going to go get her." "How?" "Well, she will not drive back into town." "The only other way out of Storm Lake is across Mackinaw Bridge." "Robert, you cannot." "Where are you taking me?" "Somewhere safe, sweetie, where no one can get us." "I do not want to go with you!" "You are mean!" "Do not say that!" "I am not mean!" "I am the only nice one!" "Everyone else wants to hurt us." "Hands up!" "Hands up." "Where is the girl?" "The crazy bitch just took off about 15 minutes ago." "Where did they head?" "I do not know." "Call for an ambulance." "She shot me and she's probably going to kill that kid!"

"Joni, please, she is dying." "I need to give her medicine." "You do not think I am a good mother." "You think I am nothing." "You used me, Robert." "You are never going to use me again." "I am taking her from you." " Daddy." " It is okay." "Robert!" "I am going to shoot you both!" "Daddy?" "Robert!" " Listen to me." " I am scared." "I am scared, too, however, I need you to do something, all right?" "Last chance, Robert!" "Okay." "I trust you." "Okay." "Okay." "That is a smart choice." "We could have had everything." "We could have had a happy life together." "However, you are a selfish coward in addition, liars just like the rest of them!" "Come on!" "Let us get out of here." "Come here." "Baby, come on!" "Robert!" "It is okay." "She sure loves that bike." "I told her she could ride into town tomorrow." "Look at you." "Not a care in the world." "She cannot be a baby forever."
