Cheerleader Nightmare (2018) Movie Script
1
We're at the bottom of
the quarter, Cleveland High
is down 3 points with 10
seconds left on the clock.
It doesn't look
like Cleveland will be
bringing home the
win today, folks.
Wait a second!
The ball's in the air...
Tyler Dell with
the touchdown catch!
And Cleveland steals a
miraculous last second victory!
Alternative rock music
Dreams, they
don't change a thing
Cheese!
Oh my gosh, so cute!
Coach Paula?
Leah, what is it?
What's wrong?
There's something I have to
talk to you about privately.
- Right now?
- Yeah.
Attack!
You guys did great!
Really great, I'm proud of you.
Great game today, Tyler.
Thanks.
You're going pro,
no doubt about it.
Don't be so thirsty, Leah.
I just want my scholarship,
that's it.
This is all just a way to
scam a college education.
You should come out to
the party with us tonight.
Maybe later.
I'm gonna celebrate with
my girl right now so,
I'll see you guys!
Hey you!
I got the perfect
picture of you!
You should see all the
really cool drone shots
that Mikey got of you.
Nice! Sometimes, everything
works out perfectly.
By the way, good game man.
Yeah, so how about we
get outta here together?
Mom wants to buy you dinner.
What your mom wants to
do is keep an eye on us.
Or me, really.
Can you blame her?
Leave us alone together
and we can't be trusted.
Touche.
Hey, Mikey, get a shot of us?
Sure, all right.
Might as well.
All right, ready?
Aaaand break!
Hi, mom.
Hey.
That's enough of that,
let's go get some pizza.
Yeah.
Let's do it.
I'll see you at
the park later, Mikey.
I'm going to kill her.
I mean, look at that catch!
I can't tell if you're
admiring me or the photos.
Both!
Little bit of both?
Yeah.
Seriously, some of these
are really awesome...
That one looks so good.
You did a great job.
Well, congratulations
on the win, Tyler.
I think the team's discipline
has been good for you, right?
I hear that your
grades are coming up.
Yeah, it's been a good year.
I feel like if I
put my mind to it,
I can achieve anything.
I think that you
do your best work
when the whole
community is watching.
Honestly, I thought you
disapproved of me, Coach White,
but I'm glad you don't.
No, I do. I do
disapprove of you.
Mom!
What? I'm joking!
All I'm saying is that the
Captain of the Football and the Head Cheerleader
are supposed to be together.
It's like a law of nature.
Okay Mikey, I get that
you're into in Leah,
but Tyler, my boyfriend, is not.
But that's exactly
what I'm saying!
Their personalities
don't matter.
They don't have
to like each other,
it's like an instinctive
mating ritual.
They have a role to play,
it's an unwritten rule.
Like a king doesn't go for a
peasant, he goes for a queen.
No offense, Mikey, but
you're not exactly an expert
on relationships or romance
or sex or anything!
How dare you, okay?
Miss "Captain of
the Football Team"
doubts my authority on love?
You know, sometimes
things are a lot clearer
from an outside perspective.
That's all I'm saying.
you always
try to make Tyler sound like
he's some dumb jock stereotype.
Let me guess: he's really
thoughtful and really sweet?
He is!
Yeah, I'm sure he is.
And number two:
Leah is a total jerk,
and she's in love with herself.
Okay, we should
be recording now.
Let's see...
Drone me!
Thank you.
All right, you ready?
Yeah... let's do it.
Here we go!
Whoa, yeah all right!
Jeez, this is pretty cool...
I bet I could see right
into people's houses.
Okay no, we're not doing that.
You know, I heard she's
having a party today.
Who?
Leah and the cheer squad.
Oh, that's literally like the
last place I'd ever want to be.
Didn't you used to be
best friends with her?
Yeah, like a million years
ago when we were little kids.
So what happened?
I guess she wanted
cooler friends.
So you guys just never
talked or anything?
That's kind of lame.
Hey, there it is.
There's the party!
How would you like it if
people spied on your parties?
I don't have parties, so...
Just fly on home.
No, I still more
time on my turn.
Whoa, hello ladies!
Eww! I'm not gonna
stand here while
you literally gawk
at cheerleaders.
Okay time's up, come on!
Goggle me!
Thank you.
Wait, is that Tyler?
What do you see?
Give me the controls.
What, what's going on?
I can't believe it.
Sophie, what did you see?
Today never happened, okay?
Sophie, whatever's
going on right now,
you know you can talk
to me about it, right?
It's nothing!
It kinda seems
like it's something.
Sorry, I just
forgot that I'm late.
I have to go to the flower
shop before my mom kills me.
Bye.
Sophie, come on!
Here go you, happy anniversary!
Thank you.
See you next time!
Okay!
That's really beautiful.
Thank you.
Nice work.
Anyway, the girls' dedication
is pretty incredible,
I think all we have
to do is tweak a couple
of the new routines,
and we'll really stand out
at the state tournament
and maybe even bring home
a couple of new
trophies this year.
I just love hearing
about that cheer squad.
You know, it never
really bothered me
that you didn't want
to be a cheerleader.
It's totally fine, I get it.
It's not everybody's thing
but, sometimes honey,
I think you're just against
the idea of being cheerful.
No, I'm just sick and tired
of hearing about stupid cheers
and how amazing it is
worshipping football players.
It's lame.
Okay, maybe you think it's lame.
That's fine, but it's
not about cheerleading.
It's about having a hobby,
like cheer squad,
or football, or
playing the clarinet,
or math club, or underwater
basket weaving. Like whatever.
I just wish that you
had a passion for it.
I take pictures, remember?
Yes and they're beautiful,
really.
I just think that sometimes
you're so isolated
and I wish that you
were part of a team
so that you could learn values
like cooperation and leadership.
Wait, cheer squad values?
Mom, you're making me sick.
Well honey, it's not about
where you learn them,
it's about that you learn them.
And teamwork is a good thing.
Do you like them better than me?
Who?
The girls on the cheer squad.
No, not at all.
Well, why not?
Everyone else does.
They have more
confidence than I do.
They smile more,
they're prettier than me.
No they're not.
You spend half
your time with them,
and when you're with me, all you
wanna do is talk about them.
You think cheering is like,
the greatest thing
and mom, you know what,
let's be honest.
I'm the complete opposite
of a cheerleader.
Which is amazing,
it's wonderful.
I love it, really!
And you know, I may
be the cheer coach,
and that's very gratifying for
me, but honey I love you more.
I love you more than any
of those cheerleaders,
I love you more than anything
on this entire planet.
Really! I love you
more than ice cream.
No I'm serious, I love you more
than chocolate chip ice cream.
And rocky road?
And rocky road, I promise.
Okay?
Okay.
All right.
Can I go home now?
Mmm-hmm.
But does this have
anything to do with Tyler?
My world doesn't revolve around
Tyler, mom! Okay?
Okay.
I'm going to kill him.
Hey Beth.
Wait, hold on, hold on.
No.
Sophie is here with me,
it's just the two of us.
I haven't seen
Leah since the game.
Wait, she's missing?
Beth called last night.
Apparently, Leah is missing.
She ran off and got
everybody worried.
Have you heard
anything about her?
I'm sure she's okay.
She's not okay.
They found her.
And turning now
to some tragic news,
police have confirmed the
body found last night belongs
to Cleveland High head
cheerleader Leah Dumont.
While details
are still emerging,
foul play is suspected.
Anyone with information is
urged to contact local police.
I'm so sorry.
The police think
whoever did this knew her.
Someone's going to pay
for what they did our Leah.
I don't think Reeva likes you.
The feeling is mutual.
Whatever, she'll be
head cheerleader now.
That's what she's always wanted.
So tragic.
How are you holding up?
She's upset.
Easy there, Mikey.
By the way, where
were you last night?
I could ask you the same thing.
Slow down guys.
Lets not get ahead
of ourselves, okay?
No one knows what
happened to Leah.
True, true.
But we'll find out.
Hey, c'mon Tyler.
We need to get to the gym.
I'll talk to you later, okay?
So, do you think we need
to go check on the kids?
Not at the moment.
Looks like they're
getting it sorted out.
Here we go!
5, 6, 7, 8.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8...
Hey ladies.
Let's all gather
in a circle here.
This is the first practice
without Leah.
So if anyone wants to talk
about what happened,
you know the school has brought
in some grief counselors
and I hope you know
that you can always
come talk to me about anything.
Let's just hold hands here
and let's have a moment.
Okay good.
Why don't you guys
finish your warm ups
and I'll be right back, okay?
We're gonna have a good
day y'all. A good day.
Okay, two lanes of three.
Let's get going.
This was your idea.
That's what you gotta do,
man, it's what coach wants.
You go on ahead, I'll catch up.
Hey Ryan.
What's up?
So all this Leah stuff,
it's pretty crazy, right?
Yeah it's like, too
much to think about.
One day someone's here and
then suddenly they're gone
and the whole world's different.
And nobody knows what happened
to her at the party, huh?
I was at Leah's party.
A bunch of guys from the
football team were going,
it was last minute.
I should have told you,
but I just wanted to go
and hang out and
celebrate the game.
We're supposed to be completely
honest with each other, right?
Right, definitely.
I kissed Leah.
We kissed each other.
She kissed me, actually.
I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!
It was stupid, okay?
It was a mistake.
We were drinking, and I guess
she's always had a crush on me.
I'm not gonna make up excuses,
I'm sorry, there's no excuse.
What happened afterwards?
What did you do with her, Tyler?
Nothing! For real.
When I told her
to stop kissing me,
she got pissed and she
told me to leave, so I left.
Me and Ryan left and
we just went to run
the track by the football field.
You can check, all right?
When I left, she
was buzzed and angry,
but she was alive.
I don't know what happened to
her after that, but me and Ryan
were on the other side of
town when she was murdered.
You might have been the last
person to see her alive, Tyler.
No! The last person
to see her alive
is the person who killed her.
Okay, you need to
go to the police.
And tell them what?
You need to tell them
everything, the whole truth!
I don't know anything, okay?
I don't know anything!
Sophie, think about it!
My dad is doing hard
time for armed robbery.
And I have two
arrests for vandalism.
I know how hard you worked to
put all that behind you, but...
The cops won't care!
They're just going to find
the tiniest reason to pin
it on me, and I'm screwed.
My Mom will be heartbroken;
we can't afford lawyers, or
court fees, or any of that bull.
If I get involved in this,
it could ruin me!
You think that's more important
than what happened to Leah?
No, but one tragedy doesn't
fix another tragedy.
I'm scared, Sophie.
Okay, I'm scared.
The only thing I know for
sure anymore is that...
Is that I love you.
I love you.
I'm in love with you.
From the first moment
I saw you, it's like...
It's like nothing else even
mattered.
I love you, too.
So much.
Look. From now until forever,
we have to trust each other,
and protect each other, okay?
Please!
I know how people
look at me, okay?
Like I'm trash.
Like I'm some loser
juvenile delinquent.
If it weren't for football,
or for you,
I'd just be some kid who
gets detention all the time.
And I can't help
but think that...
What?
What if that's the point?
What if I'm being set up?
What if the killer
is framing me?
I want you to look me in the eye
and swear that you have no
idea what happened to Leah.
I swear! I didn't hurt her.
And I don't know who did.
I had nothing to do with it.
Okay.
Then we have a killer to catch.
Guitar rock music
Coach Parker.
You're gonna have to
start calling me Matt.
How are they doing?
Well, you know... I just
assume that they're even more
freaked out than I am, they're
just better at acting cool.
Tough to be the fearless leader
when none of us
have any answers.
Oh, I forgot to send
you the information
on the candlelight vigil, it's...
Please do.
I don't have my phone.
I'll be right back.
I got a text from Sophie.
Great picture of the game,
dinner at 6:30, see you soon...
Hey girls, has anybody
seen my phone?
Are you guys finishing
up your warm-ups?
Sorry, what was it
you were looking for?
My phone. Has
anybody seen my phone?
Oh, no.
We haven't seen it but
we'll keep our eyes peeled.
Thanks. Why don't
you guys run laps?
I found it!
Music playing
on headphones
Hey Mikey!
Mikey?
Hey!
Hey.
Hey.
How's it going?
So, you know the other
day with the party?
You mean the day
Leah was murdered?
Yeah that one.
Yeah.
It kind of feels like
a dream, doesn't it?
Like a really bad nightmare.
Well, which one of them did it?
What do you mean?
Think about it: we
got the cheerleaders,
the popular kids and the
football players, right?
Statistically speaking,
one of them had to do it.
I mean it could be her parents,
but the odds that this
is just some random
killer are almost zero.
So I'm asking you: of all
our friends that you know,
which one do you
think would do it?
You really think someone
we go to school with
is capable of murder?
We're all capable of murder.
So who do you think did it?
No, I asked you first.
I don't know.
I don't know if I
really wanna know.
I mean, the police will
figure it out, right?
Only 64% of murders
are ever solved.
Great.
But we have so many pictures
of Leah, we can find clues.
I know what the drone saw.
We saw what happened
at the party.
Tyler and Leah's kiss.
I'm sorry.
We need to protect each other
and trust each other, right?
Yes, definitely.
So I'm gonna need you
to swear to me that you
won't tell anyone about the
drone video of the party.
Are you being serious?
It's just going to make the
cops look at the wrong suspects.
Tyler is terrified right now...
No he is, and you know
that this could ruin him.
I don't know why you
think I should trust Tyler.
That guy has never even
acknowledged my existence
in my entire life.
Then don't trust him, trust me.
Please trust me?
Okay.
You swear?
Yes, I swear.
You're the best!
Thank you!
You know there's always
room for improvement,
you can tighten it up,
clean it up a little...
Hey, Paula?
Yeah. Keep going.
Hey. You don't look so good.
I just got off the phone
with Leah's mother.
Have they learned anything new?
No, nothing yet.
She's pretty broken up.
She's asking about Leah's
cheer uniform and pom-poms.
I guess the family's
sentimental.
It's the little things, right?
I totally can get that.
Just heartbreaking.
Every game I can remember,
Leah was there.
Do you mind checking
Leah's locker?
I'm about to run into town,
I can drop those things
by her parents' house.
Sure thing, yeah.
Ladies!
Continue with your cool
down stretches, okay?
I'll be right back.
Good job.
Hello, anybody here?
Hello?
Coast is clear, come on.
Things must be pretty
brutal for your girls.
Yeah.
All I can tell you is I know
the boys on the football team
are sure feeling
the weight of this.
They're actually very
caring, sensitive kids.
I can't imagine what her parents
are going through right now.
Leah was like a family member.
Do you know the combination?
No.
It's okay, I know a sure fire
way to unlock these things.
Do you?
Yeah.
Your days are numbered?
I think we need
to call the police.
Ladies?
Hey.
You can't disappear on me like
that, not after what happened.
I just spent the whole
afternoon with the police.
Apparently somebody
was threatening Leah.
There's nobody threatening me.
Yes, but we don't know where
the danger's coming from,
so we have to be extra careful.
Okay.
I just wanted to see
some of my friends.
I know. I know that
this is difficult.
You just can't disappear on me.
How are your friends holding up?
Everybody is just in shock.
I don't really know how we
can deal with Leah's death
as long as the
killer's still out there.
All I can think of is, well...
Tell me.
Leah's whole world was about
being head cheerleader and those
girls have a history of cutting
down anything in their way.
What are you saying?
Wake up, mom!
Everyone knows they're vicious.
They hate kids like me.
They hate teachers
who tell them what to do,
but most of all,
they hate each other.
Well, whoever hurt Leah...
Killed, mom. She's dead.
She's not hurt, or sick,
or coming back.
She's gone forever.
And while it may be
scary to think about,
whoever did it was probably
somebody that we know.
Which is why we need
to be extra careful.
Aren't the police supposed
to arrest somebody?
Are they the ones who were
supposed to figure this out?
Yes, but until they do,
I don't want you to
be alone with anyone.
Not Tyler, not Mikey, or anyone.
You're grounding me?
No unsupervised socializing.
You can have people over when
I'm here, but not alone, okay?
Mom, don't you think
right now is exactly
when I need my friends the most?
No unsupervised
socialization, period.
Is that understood?
Honey, is that understood?
Fine, whatever.
And stay away from
those cheerleaders!
Rock music
All right! 5, 6, 7, 8!
Yes, that's it!
Looking real nice, ladies.
Excellent work, excellent.
Maybe a little tighter next
time?
I've gotta go talk
to Coach Parker.
Are you okay to take
the rest of practice?
Yeah, of course.
Hey, Coach White?
Yeah, what is it Reeva?
I just want you to know I never
wanted it to be like this.
I always wanted to be head of
cheer squad, but not this way.
I know. It's okay,
Reeva, it's all right.
Leah knew you loved her, right?
We all have little regrets.
You want to talk
more about it more?
I just want to cheer.
For Leah.
All right, get in there.
Tighter!
Hey coach!
My favorite cheerleader.
Coach Parker.
Ha, so close.
One of these days
you'll see me as a human
and not just some
jackass with a whistle.
Maybe.
They don't seem
too devious today.
7, 8, 9, 10!
Do you guys even want this?
Do you?
I don't hear you!
What if it really
was one of them?
Are you kidding?
They're a bunch
of teenage girls.
How much trouble
can they really cause?
All the trouble.
I guess I just
didn't see it before.
See what?
How dangerous they might be.
You remember being that age?
Why aren't you smiling?
Tighter!
Is that hard...
Cheer squad and the football
team can get into some trouble.
But the little ways they
misbehave,
it's a pretty big leap
to murder, Paula.
All right, well what kind
of trouble have you heard?
Nothing, really.
Hormones, popularity,
college pressures.
They can be pretty
vicious to one other.
Vicious?
That's the word
that Sophie used.
Faster, go!
You know, if you've heard
anything about my girls,
you should really tell me.
You know them better
than I do, Paula.
The football team has
the same kind of problems.
Bullying, hazing, kids
acting like spoiled brats.
We got rid of all
hazing years ago.
I was very clear with my girls.
They know that there's a
standard of conduct to uphold.
Sure, and the football team
is strictly alcohol-free.
But, c'mon, there's
only so much we can do.
These kids, they create
their own little world.
So what you're saying is:
I shouldn't be worried,
but they are up to no good?
Isn't that teenagers
in a nutshell?
Yeah, I guess.
6, 7, 8!
Don't put your knees down!
You think you can cheer
with weak little girl arms?
Push ups?
You're flat chested and
you can't even do a push up?
All right, that's enough.
You know what?
Cheer squad is about
blood, sweat, and pain.
It hurts now so it
doesn't hurt later.
You want to be the best?
Go change, I'll
see you tomorrow.
Make sure none of those girls
talk about the murder, okay?
I don't want to hear
about maybe who did it,
I don't want to hear
about the funeral plans.
Keep a code of silence, okay?
All right, head in!
Hello?
You better be careful.
Your mommy can't
always protect you.
Your nose is bleeding.
All of us squad sisters know
that our fierce passion
is what makes us great.
But Leah wants to make up lies
and complain to the school
about our fighting spirit.
Do we really want a
snitch running our team?
Team solidarity is
what's most important.
So I'm officially saying that
we can do better than Leah.
It's time for a
new head cheerleader.
Hey you.
What are you doing here?
You weren't responding
to my texts.
Sorry, I've just been
caught up with some stuff.
It's okay, it's fine.
Is something wrong?
I'm just really overwhelmed.
I know.
But that's why we
gotta stick together.
Keep each other close and safe.
Mom grounded me.
At least, I can't
have you over like this.
No unsupervised friend visits.
It's like she
thinks I'm a child.
Do you still think I did it?
No! No, I know you didn't.
It's just...
maybe we should wait
for all the drama to die down.
I hate that you feel unsafe.
Have you talked to the cops?
Heard anything about
the investigation?
Nothing, just...
What?
Just little clues.
Nothing big though.
But, if I had to guess: Reeva.
She's always wanted
to be head cheerleader.
Whatever was going on
between her and Leah,
things were
getting pretty toxic.
Reeva.
Of course.
That makes total sense.
I bet Ryan knows
something about it too.
I'll talk to him as friends,
see what's up.
You should find out what you
can about the cheer squad, too.
I will.
This is gonna work, Sophie.
We're gonna get through
this and find this killer.
Hey, not now Tyler.
C'mon, why not?
We shouldn't punish ourselves
just for being alive.
You know, if anything
it's our responsibility
to savor the time.
Every moment
with you is special.
Tyler, wait.
Wait!
Text me!
Hey, honey.
Hey!
Can you help with the rest of
the groceries?
Yeah.
Hey.
Paula! Good to see you again.
Really nice view.
I...
You know, I've been thinking
about our last conversation.
About what we owe to these kids.
And how you dodged my question.
Pardon?
I asked if you knew anything
about any bad behavior
on the cheer squad and I would
really appreciate a real answer.
I don't really listen
to cheerleader gossip.
Okay, how about
football player gossip?
What is it you
really want to hear?
Coach Parker, I'm trying
to do everything I can
to take care of the
girls on cheer squad
and clearly they're
keeping secrets from me.
What does that
have to do with me?
Whoever hurt Leah was
probably one of her friends
at the party.
Maybe someone from
the football team.
Now hold on. Don't you go
pointing fingers at my team.
I set an example for those boys:
study hard, play fair,
give respect.
We do charity fundraising three
times a year, we do a bake...
Yeah, but everybody
turns their head
if there's too much drinking,
or partying, or whatever.
I mean how much worse
does it have to get?
There's a zero tolerance policy
for any player misbehavior
on or off the field.
All right, well then how
did Tyler get on the team
with his vandalism arrests?
Tyler has proven himself
to be a diligent student
and a fine young man.
He's made a sincere
commitment to improvement.
That's a lot more important than
a couple of minor infractions.
Well I gotta break
it to you coach,
that does not make a
zero tolerance policy.
Before this tragedy,
this team was undefeated.
Paula, it is my job is
to keep that streak going.
Yes, but...
My boys need to stay
focused and determined.
Frankly, a dead cheerleader
isn't great for morale.
I need to protect
these kids, Paula.
Throwing accusations around is
just gonna make them feel worse.
What secret are you keeping?
Are you gonna tell me,
or the police?
Tyler and Leah, they
were seeing each other.
Right under Sophie's nose.
I'm sorry, I didn't want
to be the one to tell you.
Who all knew?
Ryan and Reeva.
A couple of the
other football players.
They tried to be
secretive about it,
but some things just
can't be kept a secret.
Look I'm sorry, I just
thought it would hurt less
if you didn't know.
Well, if you want to be
an example for your players,
you might want to
start with honesty.
All right, so what
do you got for me?
You first.
Okay, check this out.
So I dug a little deeper into
the cheerleaders' social media.
And pro tip: don't ever set
your password to "password".
No...
Yeah but anyway, you
were right about Reeva.
5, start doing push ups now! 6!
7, 8, don't put your knees down!
You think you can cheer
with weak little girl arms?
Okay that kind of cruelty,
that's not normal right?
I could never act like that.
She's gotta be twisted.
I mean she's a bully,
that's pretty clear.
But normal, twisted?
People can be both.
There's... there's more, too.
So it's definitely Reeva.
No, I mean there's
more of other stuff.
Like what?
Look Sophie, I'm
sorry to show you this.
I don't want to.
Just show me.
I took that picture.
So what?
You shot more than you saw.
Look.
I know this is really harsh.
I'm sorry.
I think I have tissues.
No, I'm not gonna cry over him.
Here, I'll attach them all to an
email and I'll send it to you.
Sophie?
Hey, you okay?
I'm fine. Why?
Mikey's mom just called.
And?
Mikey has been
seriously injured.
What?
Yeah, he's on the
way to the hospital,
they think he's gonna be okay.
But I just saw him a
couple of minutes ago.
They think it was a robbery,
they don't have any
suspects yet, but...
But what?
Well, it's not hard
to think that maybe
it has a connection
with Leah's murder.
Mikey had nothing to
do with Leah's death.
How could you even think that?
Sophie!
That's not what I meant...
Dammit!
Tyler.
Hey!
Hey.
I'm glad you're okay.
I mean these days.
Did you hear about what
happened to Mikey?
Yeah, but I'm not
here about that.
Okay.
We need to talk.
I know all about your cheating.
I'm sorry.
I'll keep saying I'm sorry,
because I mean it.
Stop it.
I know it wasn't
just a one night thing.
I've seen proof.
Pictures.
Videos.
Look at me.
Sophie, look at me.
I love you.
It's over, Tyler.
It just hurts too much.
Please!
I'm sorry okay, I was wrong
about everything.
And I'll do anything you want.
I'll do anything, anything,
please just don't...
I can't do this anymore!
I'm sorry!
You did this.
Sophie... Sophie!
Sophie!
You did this!
Hey mom.
Hello?
Mom?
Mom?
You were gonna
stab me with those?
Okay, hey.
How are you holding up?
I broke up with Tyler.
I found out he's
been cheating on me.
Oh honey, that's awful.
That's awful, I'm sorry.
Listen...
You are beautiful
and you are talented
and you're special
and precious, okay?
Thanks.
How did you even know
he was cheating on you?
Flying the drone with Mikey.
I saw Tyler at
Leah's party, kissing her.
He tried to deny it at first,
but there was too much proof.
I have it all on video.
Wait, you have
video of the party?
This whole time?
You have actual video of
Leah before she was killed?
Yeah, but it doesn't
show any of that.
Just the stupid party.
Honey, that's crucial evidence.
We have to give that
to the police right away.
I swore I'd keep it secret.
Okay from who, Tyler?
No, no, no.
You don't need to protect him,
especially if he's innocent.
There could be clues on that.
The police could catch
the killer from them.
No, but I've already seen it
and it doesn't show who did it.
It's just Leah hurting
me one final time.
Okay honey, listen to me.
This is bigger
than you and Tyler,
this is bigger
than you and Leah.
We've got to get that to
the police right now, c'mon.
Come on!
Okay.
Get the memory card, we'll take
it straight to the police, okay?
Okay.
Hurry honey.
Mom?
Sophie?
Hurry!
What is it, honey?
It's all gone!
All the video, the
evidence, everything!
What has happened?
Okay they're still here.
Call 911!
Hi, I'd like to report a break
in...
Stay close to me, Sophie.
Sophie, no!
Reeva.
I came here to apologize
about the other day.
I got defensive: you have
every right to ask questions
and look for the truth.
This tragedy affects
the whole community.
Right now we just need to...
Are you going to hit me
with that candleholder?
Just come in.
Mikey!
Hey, how you doing?
It's good to see you
out of the hospital.
It's good to be alive.
Let me see?
You look horrible.
Does it make me look cool?
Uh-huh.
Hi Ms. Will!
Hi Sophie.
I have pizza inside, c'mon!
I gotta give my mom props
for getting me a new computer.
This is way better
than any of the drugs
the doctors could prescribe me.
It's not quite as powerful
as your old one,
but I'm sure you'll transform
it into some sort
of customized supercomputer.
Okay, so the person
who attacked you
must have been the
murderer, right?
I honestly don't know.
I don't even remember
getting attacked,
it's just a big black
blur in my memory.
I think that might
have been the point:
to steal our memories.
They stole all of
your video files,
the originals and the
backups, even your drone.
And then they did the
exact same thing to me.
So it's obviously the murderer
covering their tracks, right?
And now all of
our evidence is gone.
Well actually, maybe not.
What do you mean?
The drone camera
makes a recording
and it streams that
video to my phone
so we can control it,
and it automatically saves
that stream to my account.
Wait, you're saying that we
might have the drone video?
I could be wrong, but...
I'm never wrong!
Yes!
That's just the miracle
of cloud storage backup.
Awesome!
You ready?
Skip to the party.
Okay...
All right, so what
are we looking for here?
Anything.
Anyone acting strange,
any sign of why
someone would want to hurt Leah.
Wait.
What are you doing?
Stop torturing yourself
with this.
Does that look like
he's kissing her,
or that she's kissing him?
Does it matter?
Yeah, it matters a lot.
Okay, it looks
like two people kissing
that have kissed
each other a lot.
I never watched this part.
Look, everyone was
watching her dance.
No wonder no one saw Leah go.
Wait a second...
Wait, you read the news right?
About how Leah was killed?
Yeah, she was
pushed down the stairs
and then the killer dumped
her body in the ravine
behind her house, probably to
make it look like an accident.
Exactly.
Pushed.
Holy hell.
It's gotta be her.
Except she's at a party and has
a dozen witnesses around her,
that's a pretty solid alibi.
There goes her alibi.
Okay so she's got means,
motive, and opportunity, but...
And there's this:
the person who robbed
my house left it behind.
Well I recognize that this.
This is Reeva's anklet.
So if we find Reeva, and
she's not wearing her anklet,
that's proof.
That's conclusive proof.
Maybe.
What other possible
explanation could there be?
Well, it was just lying
there right next to my house.
I mean it's a
perfect clue, Mikey.
A big, fat, juicy, perfect clue.
Which means either we
just solved the case,
or someone wants us
to think that we have.
I don't understand then.
I don't either.
But I'm not done
asking questions.
And I don't like the
sound of that either.
Okay, make a copy
of that for me.
I think it's time we
took this to the police.
Yes ma'am.
Thank you.
So did you invite
me here to tell me
another piece of red
hot secret gossip?
I'm all out of secrets.
Look, I'm sorry I didn't come
clean with you the other day.
We need to be working together.
The only way we're
going to help our kids
is by finding the truth.
I agree.
So the police: any
closer to making an arrest?
Your guess is as good as mine
on that one, I don't know.
How's Sophie handling
all of this?
Who does she think did it?
Well I mean, she
has some suspicions,
but no real evidence yet.
I thought we were gonna lay our
cards on the table here, Paula.
Okay, well what are your
thoughts on Reeva?
Leah's sidekick, right?
The one who's always shouting
at all the other cheerleaders.
You really think she's the one?
I think she's the
only real suspect
that we haven't eliminated.
I see her a lot,
hanging out with Ryan.
Honestly, she doesn't
seem like a killer.
She seems scared.
I think that there's a real
problem with the cheer squad.
How so?
Well I don't know, exactly.
Maybe just mean girl bullying.
Maybe more.
Before she died, Leah wanted to
tell me something in private.
And I don't know if it
was about Tyler, or Sophie,
or the problems
on the cheer squad
and I guess I'll never know.
And I just wish that I
had taken a few minutes
to hear her out.
You can't think
like that, Paula.
You're a good coach,
that's why she came to you.
I gotta confess, I'd be
relieved if it were Reeva.
All I know is my boys need to
get back to playing football
instead of worrying
about a serial killer.
Everything okay?
Yeah, it's Sophie.
Yeah I just have to get
back to check on some things.
Paula really, let me
walk you to the car.
No, thank you for
everything, really.
Wait a second!
Hey!
Oh my god, you scared me!
The detectives called
about the break-in.
Did they arrest somebody?
They wanted a full detailed list
of everything that was taken.
And?
I've got something even better.
Yeah?
I recognize that.
What the hell do you want?
The cops already
have the evidence.
It's over, so you might as
well come clean, or kill me.
The truth is we all
thought you killed Leah.
What?
You guys hated each other.
Her affair with Tyler
was the perfect motive,
plus nobody knows where you
were the night of the murder.
Tyler told me how obsessed
you are with Leah's popularity.
Just burning with jealousy,
desperate to make
the cheer squad.
Are you kidding me?
I never even had
the slightest desire
to become a friggin'
cheerleader.
Yeah? Then why are you
always following us around
with your creepy nerd friend?
We're the school's
official photographers.
Oh, so going in the locker
room and taking pictures,
is that part of your
official job description?
No, I was just looking
for information.
You're the bully, Reeva!
You're just gonna
pretend like you're not?
I'm a jerk to everyone I know.
And I was horrible to
Leah before she died.
Is that what you want to hear?
You don't understand the hours
we used to spend together,
how we used to work
together as a team.
Maybe I do.
Get in the car.
Come on!
So what, some psycho kills Leah
and we all tear
each other apart?
What does that say about us?
After what happened with Mikey,
I just feel like any
of us could be a target.
I've never felt more unsafe.
Are you kidding?
Any of us can be a
victim at anytime.
A bolt of freaking lightning
could come out of the sky
and kill us right now.
That's not the messed up part.
If the killer was
someone that Leah knew,
then that means the
killer was one of us.
If one of us can be a murderer,
then who's to say
that you couldn't crack,
or I couldn't crack?
What if instead of
becoming a better person,
I just get worse?
Hey! We're talking now, right?
We're trying to
understand each other,
maybe trying to heal this.
I put the doll in Leah's locker.
It was just a stupid prank.
I was trying to mess with her,
I knew she would go
to your mom and complain
and I thought I would
make head cheerleader.
It's so stupid now.
But, also...
I've been covering for Ryan.
It's like every time I talk
to him about the murder,
he gets shifty and weird.
Like shifty and weird how?
I mean, don't get me wrong,
I have total faith in him.
I love him.
But?
He's not a murderer!
But he might know something.
Plus, the last time
I had on my anklet,
I'm pretty sure I
was at Ryan's house.
You think he
could've planted it?
No...
God, I hope not.
But he could have.
Damn, dude, everybody's at each
other's throats right now.
You know, it's like toxic.
Yeah well, that's what
they're gonna think
as long as there's a
murderer on the loose.
Dude, no! I need you!
I can't, just be quiet.
Do you know how big this is?
If I don't get, I'll be screwed!
Come on!
Hold up, I think
I heard something.
Go check it out, go go!
Somebody's here!
Who's there?
Hey whoever you are,
you're tresspassing!
I don't see anyone man,
I think they're long gone.
I don't feel safe in
my own home.
Dude, someone's
screwing with us.
Relax man, if it was cops
they would've just arrested you.
Is that supposed to be funny?
Chill okay? Chill.
Let's be smart about this:
there's only one street
to get to your house,
which means there's
only one street to get out.
Come on.
Mom I'm fine, I just decided
to walk home to clear my head.
I'll be home in a
few minutes, okay?
Come on man,
where's your spirit?
We should just leave
her alone, all right?
Messing around like this,
it seems like it's
making everything worse.
No, we're too far in now.
We've gotta see this through.
Hey mom, sorry I'm late.
You were supposed
to come directly home.
So?
So, can't you understand
how dangerous it is?
I'm trying to protect you.
No, you're trying
to keep me hidden!
Hidden and locked up
isn't the same as safe!
Sophie...
No mom, I'm actually out there,
I'm trying to find answers.
Trying to figure out
what's going on.
No, you're not.
You're grounded.
As if that makes any sense!
You haven't given me
the bare minimum of effort!
And I have given you
plenty of warning...
Give me your cell phone.
No!
Do it.
If we do nothing, this
is never going to end.
And if you keep
stirring up trouble
that you don't understand,
this is gonna get much worse.
What does it mean?
Hey, your battery's getting low.
What do you wanna do?
I'm figuring that out, okay?
Gotta see what she knows.
Let's just go, let's
just get out of here.
It's not like you can do
anything until her mom is gone.
That lady hates you.
No, no she doesn't.
It's just misplaced emotion,
you know, basic psychology.
If Paula was Sophie's age, she'd
be super into me too, y'know?
But she's a little older, so
she's jealous of her daughter,
and she acts like she hates
me to hide her attraction.
What the hell are
you talking about?
Look, I'm going to
win back my girl.
I'm gonna make
everything right again
just like it was
before Leah's death.
Death is just a part
of life, you know.
Everybody will forget
about it and move on.
Tyler, nobody's gonna forget.
I'm gonna talk to Sophie,
tell her I love her,
and everything will
be normal again.
Everything will be good again.
Hey, Mrs. White.
I'm sorry to bother you.
Is it okay if I speak
to Sophie for a second?
I don't think that
you should be here.
I, I just wanted to tell
her that she's right,
and I'm sorry.
No hard feelings, you know?
I know that you're cheater.
And I also know that my daughter
deserves real love and that
you're too selfish to care.
Wow, I guess I deserve that.
But if that's really
how Sophie feels,
I should probably
hear that from her.
I just want to
own up to what I did.
Mom!
Let him in, we
have to talk sometime.
Please, I just want to
explain things and apologize.
I expect nothing more.
Thanks.
Hey.
And keep the door open!
All right, let's
see who has my drone.
No.
Sophie just choose us.
That's all I'm asking you for.
A fresh start.
Me and you will grow together
and we're stronger together now.
I thought you just
came to apologize.
Please, I just...
Just give me a second chance.
I can't.
I'm not saying it's impossible,
it's just that things
are really crazy right now.
I need some time to myself.
Some space to figure this out.
Look...
I've been really, really
patient with you, Sophie.
You think you're better than me?
What are you talking about?
Wow.
Looks like honest little Sophie
has a few secrets of her own.
So how long have you known?
You've just been toying
with me this whole time?
Just go.
You should learn to be
a little more grateful.
Hey, Mikey.
Why do we have
to keep doing this?
You said it was an accident.
You're not going to jail
just because Leah fell
down some stairs.
Ryan it was an accident, okay?
I didn't mean to do it.
She just couldn't
keep her mouth shut.
She was gonna tell Sophie
and screw up my whole life,
maybe even cost
me my scholarship.
I just wanted to have fun and
she had to go and piss me off!
I didn't mean to
push her down the stairs!
That's messed up, man.
You shouldn't have gone
after her or Mikey.
I've got an airtight alibi
as long as I can trust you.
We're still one step
ahead of everybody, okay?
So just keep your game face on.
You have to go.
Get out of my house!
See, that's exactly
what I wanted to do.
Sophie's not much
fun anymore, anyway.
But we got a
problem now, don't we?
Here, just take
the phone and go.
You can have all the copies
of all the video footage.
You really think I'm dumb
enough to fall for that?
No, no, no.
It's going to take a lot
more to keep you quiet.
No!
Sophie!
Stop right there!
Believe it or not, I actually
came here to be nice.
That was my plan.
Although, if I'm being
completely honest right now,
I never really have a plan!
Life is just so uncertain.
Tyler, whatever it is,
we can talk it over.
We can talk about it
and maybe find a solution.
Really?
Because I tried
that with Sophie here
and she very
wasn't interested in it.
Please, just let me go...
Shut up!
You are just like Leah.
She was cool at first too,
but then she had to go
and mess up everything.
I'm not gonna be
somebody's second choice.
Either you want to see me,
or you don't, okay?
And I think it's pretty
obvious that you love me, so...
I don't get what
you're so afraid of.
It's not like you
actually care about Sophie.
I'm not afraid of anything.
That's it, isn't it?
You're afraid.
You can't even bear
the thought of facing
sweet little Sophie...
Shut up, okay?
Just shut up about it!
We're done, I don't date losers!
Stop it, stop it!
You're gonna end up
just like your father,
in prison and rotting away
for the rest of your life.
I am not like him!
You want to see selfish?
Why don't you look
in the mirror?
At least I'm not
a pathetic loser.
I can't wait to tell
Sophie about all of this.
You're nothing compared to me.
You should've been grateful.
Tyler!
Tyler, you don't
have to do this.
You don't have to hurt her,
this is not gonna
be good for you.
Jealousy makes people do
terrible things, doesn't it?
See, when I'm having
a problem with a girl,
I don't get
possessive or jealous.
No, I just throw her away.
Mom!
Oh honey, I love you so much.
Tyler listen, you can
make the wrong choice or you
can make the right choice
here and just let her go.
I hope you just let her go.
Don't worry, I'm
going to let her go!
No! Please don't!
Love makes us do
crazy things, doesn't it?
We'll do whatever you want.
Please!
So now we're talking.
You know what I want?
More than anything
else in the whole world?
No, what?
I want you to...
Come on baby, come on!
Let's get out of here!
You're dead!
You guys are really
gonna make me hunt you down?
Come out, come out,
wherever you are.
Sophie, Sophie...
Leah was too good for you.
Honey... honey.
Okay, so after I drop you off,
I'll have just enough time
to go by the greenhouse.
They have the most beautiful...
Are you expecting someone?
No.
Hi, Mrs. White.
Hey Mikey.
I'm sorry for bothering you,
but is Sophie home?
Yeah.
Can I come in?
Thank you.
Hey.
Hey!
So I was just wondering,
because I got my license now.
I was thinking I could give
you a ride to school, if...
Yeah, it would save
my mom the trip, right?
Yeah, I mean I'm good with it
if you guys are good with it.
Very good with it!
Let's go.
You don't have to
worry anymore, mom.
Okay.
We made it.
Yeah.
Love you.
I love you more!
You guys be good.
We will!
Bye!
We're at the bottom of
the quarter, Cleveland High
is down 3 points with 10
seconds left on the clock.
It doesn't look
like Cleveland will be
bringing home the
win today, folks.
Wait a second!
The ball's in the air...
Tyler Dell with
the touchdown catch!
And Cleveland steals a
miraculous last second victory!
Alternative rock music
Dreams, they
don't change a thing
Cheese!
Oh my gosh, so cute!
Coach Paula?
Leah, what is it?
What's wrong?
There's something I have to
talk to you about privately.
- Right now?
- Yeah.
Attack!
You guys did great!
Really great, I'm proud of you.
Great game today, Tyler.
Thanks.
You're going pro,
no doubt about it.
Don't be so thirsty, Leah.
I just want my scholarship,
that's it.
This is all just a way to
scam a college education.
You should come out to
the party with us tonight.
Maybe later.
I'm gonna celebrate with
my girl right now so,
I'll see you guys!
Hey you!
I got the perfect
picture of you!
You should see all the
really cool drone shots
that Mikey got of you.
Nice! Sometimes, everything
works out perfectly.
By the way, good game man.
Yeah, so how about we
get outta here together?
Mom wants to buy you dinner.
What your mom wants to
do is keep an eye on us.
Or me, really.
Can you blame her?
Leave us alone together
and we can't be trusted.
Touche.
Hey, Mikey, get a shot of us?
Sure, all right.
Might as well.
All right, ready?
Aaaand break!
Hi, mom.
Hey.
That's enough of that,
let's go get some pizza.
Yeah.
Let's do it.
I'll see you at
the park later, Mikey.
I'm going to kill her.
I mean, look at that catch!
I can't tell if you're
admiring me or the photos.
Both!
Little bit of both?
Yeah.
Seriously, some of these
are really awesome...
That one looks so good.
You did a great job.
Well, congratulations
on the win, Tyler.
I think the team's discipline
has been good for you, right?
I hear that your
grades are coming up.
Yeah, it's been a good year.
I feel like if I
put my mind to it,
I can achieve anything.
I think that you
do your best work
when the whole
community is watching.
Honestly, I thought you
disapproved of me, Coach White,
but I'm glad you don't.
No, I do. I do
disapprove of you.
Mom!
What? I'm joking!
All I'm saying is that the
Captain of the Football and the Head Cheerleader
are supposed to be together.
It's like a law of nature.
Okay Mikey, I get that
you're into in Leah,
but Tyler, my boyfriend, is not.
But that's exactly
what I'm saying!
Their personalities
don't matter.
They don't have
to like each other,
it's like an instinctive
mating ritual.
They have a role to play,
it's an unwritten rule.
Like a king doesn't go for a
peasant, he goes for a queen.
No offense, Mikey, but
you're not exactly an expert
on relationships or romance
or sex or anything!
How dare you, okay?
Miss "Captain of
the Football Team"
doubts my authority on love?
You know, sometimes
things are a lot clearer
from an outside perspective.
That's all I'm saying.
you always
try to make Tyler sound like
he's some dumb jock stereotype.
Let me guess: he's really
thoughtful and really sweet?
He is!
Yeah, I'm sure he is.
And number two:
Leah is a total jerk,
and she's in love with herself.
Okay, we should
be recording now.
Let's see...
Drone me!
Thank you.
All right, you ready?
Yeah... let's do it.
Here we go!
Whoa, yeah all right!
Jeez, this is pretty cool...
I bet I could see right
into people's houses.
Okay no, we're not doing that.
You know, I heard she's
having a party today.
Who?
Leah and the cheer squad.
Oh, that's literally like the
last place I'd ever want to be.
Didn't you used to be
best friends with her?
Yeah, like a million years
ago when we were little kids.
So what happened?
I guess she wanted
cooler friends.
So you guys just never
talked or anything?
That's kind of lame.
Hey, there it is.
There's the party!
How would you like it if
people spied on your parties?
I don't have parties, so...
Just fly on home.
No, I still more
time on my turn.
Whoa, hello ladies!
Eww! I'm not gonna
stand here while
you literally gawk
at cheerleaders.
Okay time's up, come on!
Goggle me!
Thank you.
Wait, is that Tyler?
What do you see?
Give me the controls.
What, what's going on?
I can't believe it.
Sophie, what did you see?
Today never happened, okay?
Sophie, whatever's
going on right now,
you know you can talk
to me about it, right?
It's nothing!
It kinda seems
like it's something.
Sorry, I just
forgot that I'm late.
I have to go to the flower
shop before my mom kills me.
Bye.
Sophie, come on!
Here go you, happy anniversary!
Thank you.
See you next time!
Okay!
That's really beautiful.
Thank you.
Nice work.
Anyway, the girls' dedication
is pretty incredible,
I think all we have
to do is tweak a couple
of the new routines,
and we'll really stand out
at the state tournament
and maybe even bring home
a couple of new
trophies this year.
I just love hearing
about that cheer squad.
You know, it never
really bothered me
that you didn't want
to be a cheerleader.
It's totally fine, I get it.
It's not everybody's thing
but, sometimes honey,
I think you're just against
the idea of being cheerful.
No, I'm just sick and tired
of hearing about stupid cheers
and how amazing it is
worshipping football players.
It's lame.
Okay, maybe you think it's lame.
That's fine, but it's
not about cheerleading.
It's about having a hobby,
like cheer squad,
or football, or
playing the clarinet,
or math club, or underwater
basket weaving. Like whatever.
I just wish that you
had a passion for it.
I take pictures, remember?
Yes and they're beautiful,
really.
I just think that sometimes
you're so isolated
and I wish that you
were part of a team
so that you could learn values
like cooperation and leadership.
Wait, cheer squad values?
Mom, you're making me sick.
Well honey, it's not about
where you learn them,
it's about that you learn them.
And teamwork is a good thing.
Do you like them better than me?
Who?
The girls on the cheer squad.
No, not at all.
Well, why not?
Everyone else does.
They have more
confidence than I do.
They smile more,
they're prettier than me.
No they're not.
You spend half
your time with them,
and when you're with me, all you
wanna do is talk about them.
You think cheering is like,
the greatest thing
and mom, you know what,
let's be honest.
I'm the complete opposite
of a cheerleader.
Which is amazing,
it's wonderful.
I love it, really!
And you know, I may
be the cheer coach,
and that's very gratifying for
me, but honey I love you more.
I love you more than any
of those cheerleaders,
I love you more than anything
on this entire planet.
Really! I love you
more than ice cream.
No I'm serious, I love you more
than chocolate chip ice cream.
And rocky road?
And rocky road, I promise.
Okay?
Okay.
All right.
Can I go home now?
Mmm-hmm.
But does this have
anything to do with Tyler?
My world doesn't revolve around
Tyler, mom! Okay?
Okay.
I'm going to kill him.
Hey Beth.
Wait, hold on, hold on.
No.
Sophie is here with me,
it's just the two of us.
I haven't seen
Leah since the game.
Wait, she's missing?
Beth called last night.
Apparently, Leah is missing.
She ran off and got
everybody worried.
Have you heard
anything about her?
I'm sure she's okay.
She's not okay.
They found her.
And turning now
to some tragic news,
police have confirmed the
body found last night belongs
to Cleveland High head
cheerleader Leah Dumont.
While details
are still emerging,
foul play is suspected.
Anyone with information is
urged to contact local police.
I'm so sorry.
The police think
whoever did this knew her.
Someone's going to pay
for what they did our Leah.
I don't think Reeva likes you.
The feeling is mutual.
Whatever, she'll be
head cheerleader now.
That's what she's always wanted.
So tragic.
How are you holding up?
She's upset.
Easy there, Mikey.
By the way, where
were you last night?
I could ask you the same thing.
Slow down guys.
Lets not get ahead
of ourselves, okay?
No one knows what
happened to Leah.
True, true.
But we'll find out.
Hey, c'mon Tyler.
We need to get to the gym.
I'll talk to you later, okay?
So, do you think we need
to go check on the kids?
Not at the moment.
Looks like they're
getting it sorted out.
Here we go!
5, 6, 7, 8.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8...
Hey ladies.
Let's all gather
in a circle here.
This is the first practice
without Leah.
So if anyone wants to talk
about what happened,
you know the school has brought
in some grief counselors
and I hope you know
that you can always
come talk to me about anything.
Let's just hold hands here
and let's have a moment.
Okay good.
Why don't you guys
finish your warm ups
and I'll be right back, okay?
We're gonna have a good
day y'all. A good day.
Okay, two lanes of three.
Let's get going.
This was your idea.
That's what you gotta do,
man, it's what coach wants.
You go on ahead, I'll catch up.
Hey Ryan.
What's up?
So all this Leah stuff,
it's pretty crazy, right?
Yeah it's like, too
much to think about.
One day someone's here and
then suddenly they're gone
and the whole world's different.
And nobody knows what happened
to her at the party, huh?
I was at Leah's party.
A bunch of guys from the
football team were going,
it was last minute.
I should have told you,
but I just wanted to go
and hang out and
celebrate the game.
We're supposed to be completely
honest with each other, right?
Right, definitely.
I kissed Leah.
We kissed each other.
She kissed me, actually.
I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!
It was stupid, okay?
It was a mistake.
We were drinking, and I guess
she's always had a crush on me.
I'm not gonna make up excuses,
I'm sorry, there's no excuse.
What happened afterwards?
What did you do with her, Tyler?
Nothing! For real.
When I told her
to stop kissing me,
she got pissed and she
told me to leave, so I left.
Me and Ryan left and
we just went to run
the track by the football field.
You can check, all right?
When I left, she
was buzzed and angry,
but she was alive.
I don't know what happened to
her after that, but me and Ryan
were on the other side of
town when she was murdered.
You might have been the last
person to see her alive, Tyler.
No! The last person
to see her alive
is the person who killed her.
Okay, you need to
go to the police.
And tell them what?
You need to tell them
everything, the whole truth!
I don't know anything, okay?
I don't know anything!
Sophie, think about it!
My dad is doing hard
time for armed robbery.
And I have two
arrests for vandalism.
I know how hard you worked to
put all that behind you, but...
The cops won't care!
They're just going to find
the tiniest reason to pin
it on me, and I'm screwed.
My Mom will be heartbroken;
we can't afford lawyers, or
court fees, or any of that bull.
If I get involved in this,
it could ruin me!
You think that's more important
than what happened to Leah?
No, but one tragedy doesn't
fix another tragedy.
I'm scared, Sophie.
Okay, I'm scared.
The only thing I know for
sure anymore is that...
Is that I love you.
I love you.
I'm in love with you.
From the first moment
I saw you, it's like...
It's like nothing else even
mattered.
I love you, too.
So much.
Look. From now until forever,
we have to trust each other,
and protect each other, okay?
Please!
I know how people
look at me, okay?
Like I'm trash.
Like I'm some loser
juvenile delinquent.
If it weren't for football,
or for you,
I'd just be some kid who
gets detention all the time.
And I can't help
but think that...
What?
What if that's the point?
What if I'm being set up?
What if the killer
is framing me?
I want you to look me in the eye
and swear that you have no
idea what happened to Leah.
I swear! I didn't hurt her.
And I don't know who did.
I had nothing to do with it.
Okay.
Then we have a killer to catch.
Guitar rock music
Coach Parker.
You're gonna have to
start calling me Matt.
How are they doing?
Well, you know... I just
assume that they're even more
freaked out than I am, they're
just better at acting cool.
Tough to be the fearless leader
when none of us
have any answers.
Oh, I forgot to send
you the information
on the candlelight vigil, it's...
Please do.
I don't have my phone.
I'll be right back.
I got a text from Sophie.
Great picture of the game,
dinner at 6:30, see you soon...
Hey girls, has anybody
seen my phone?
Are you guys finishing
up your warm-ups?
Sorry, what was it
you were looking for?
My phone. Has
anybody seen my phone?
Oh, no.
We haven't seen it but
we'll keep our eyes peeled.
Thanks. Why don't
you guys run laps?
I found it!
Music playing
on headphones
Hey Mikey!
Mikey?
Hey!
Hey.
Hey.
How's it going?
So, you know the other
day with the party?
You mean the day
Leah was murdered?
Yeah that one.
Yeah.
It kind of feels like
a dream, doesn't it?
Like a really bad nightmare.
Well, which one of them did it?
What do you mean?
Think about it: we
got the cheerleaders,
the popular kids and the
football players, right?
Statistically speaking,
one of them had to do it.
I mean it could be her parents,
but the odds that this
is just some random
killer are almost zero.
So I'm asking you: of all
our friends that you know,
which one do you
think would do it?
You really think someone
we go to school with
is capable of murder?
We're all capable of murder.
So who do you think did it?
No, I asked you first.
I don't know.
I don't know if I
really wanna know.
I mean, the police will
figure it out, right?
Only 64% of murders
are ever solved.
Great.
But we have so many pictures
of Leah, we can find clues.
I know what the drone saw.
We saw what happened
at the party.
Tyler and Leah's kiss.
I'm sorry.
We need to protect each other
and trust each other, right?
Yes, definitely.
So I'm gonna need you
to swear to me that you
won't tell anyone about the
drone video of the party.
Are you being serious?
It's just going to make the
cops look at the wrong suspects.
Tyler is terrified right now...
No he is, and you know
that this could ruin him.
I don't know why you
think I should trust Tyler.
That guy has never even
acknowledged my existence
in my entire life.
Then don't trust him, trust me.
Please trust me?
Okay.
You swear?
Yes, I swear.
You're the best!
Thank you!
You know there's always
room for improvement,
you can tighten it up,
clean it up a little...
Hey, Paula?
Yeah. Keep going.
Hey. You don't look so good.
I just got off the phone
with Leah's mother.
Have they learned anything new?
No, nothing yet.
She's pretty broken up.
She's asking about Leah's
cheer uniform and pom-poms.
I guess the family's
sentimental.
It's the little things, right?
I totally can get that.
Just heartbreaking.
Every game I can remember,
Leah was there.
Do you mind checking
Leah's locker?
I'm about to run into town,
I can drop those things
by her parents' house.
Sure thing, yeah.
Ladies!
Continue with your cool
down stretches, okay?
I'll be right back.
Good job.
Hello, anybody here?
Hello?
Coast is clear, come on.
Things must be pretty
brutal for your girls.
Yeah.
All I can tell you is I know
the boys on the football team
are sure feeling
the weight of this.
They're actually very
caring, sensitive kids.
I can't imagine what her parents
are going through right now.
Leah was like a family member.
Do you know the combination?
No.
It's okay, I know a sure fire
way to unlock these things.
Do you?
Yeah.
Your days are numbered?
I think we need
to call the police.
Ladies?
Hey.
You can't disappear on me like
that, not after what happened.
I just spent the whole
afternoon with the police.
Apparently somebody
was threatening Leah.
There's nobody threatening me.
Yes, but we don't know where
the danger's coming from,
so we have to be extra careful.
Okay.
I just wanted to see
some of my friends.
I know. I know that
this is difficult.
You just can't disappear on me.
How are your friends holding up?
Everybody is just in shock.
I don't really know how we
can deal with Leah's death
as long as the
killer's still out there.
All I can think of is, well...
Tell me.
Leah's whole world was about
being head cheerleader and those
girls have a history of cutting
down anything in their way.
What are you saying?
Wake up, mom!
Everyone knows they're vicious.
They hate kids like me.
They hate teachers
who tell them what to do,
but most of all,
they hate each other.
Well, whoever hurt Leah...
Killed, mom. She's dead.
She's not hurt, or sick,
or coming back.
She's gone forever.
And while it may be
scary to think about,
whoever did it was probably
somebody that we know.
Which is why we need
to be extra careful.
Aren't the police supposed
to arrest somebody?
Are they the ones who were
supposed to figure this out?
Yes, but until they do,
I don't want you to
be alone with anyone.
Not Tyler, not Mikey, or anyone.
You're grounding me?
No unsupervised socializing.
You can have people over when
I'm here, but not alone, okay?
Mom, don't you think
right now is exactly
when I need my friends the most?
No unsupervised
socialization, period.
Is that understood?
Honey, is that understood?
Fine, whatever.
And stay away from
those cheerleaders!
Rock music
All right! 5, 6, 7, 8!
Yes, that's it!
Looking real nice, ladies.
Excellent work, excellent.
Maybe a little tighter next
time?
I've gotta go talk
to Coach Parker.
Are you okay to take
the rest of practice?
Yeah, of course.
Hey, Coach White?
Yeah, what is it Reeva?
I just want you to know I never
wanted it to be like this.
I always wanted to be head of
cheer squad, but not this way.
I know. It's okay,
Reeva, it's all right.
Leah knew you loved her, right?
We all have little regrets.
You want to talk
more about it more?
I just want to cheer.
For Leah.
All right, get in there.
Tighter!
Hey coach!
My favorite cheerleader.
Coach Parker.
Ha, so close.
One of these days
you'll see me as a human
and not just some
jackass with a whistle.
Maybe.
They don't seem
too devious today.
7, 8, 9, 10!
Do you guys even want this?
Do you?
I don't hear you!
What if it really
was one of them?
Are you kidding?
They're a bunch
of teenage girls.
How much trouble
can they really cause?
All the trouble.
I guess I just
didn't see it before.
See what?
How dangerous they might be.
You remember being that age?
Why aren't you smiling?
Tighter!
Is that hard...
Cheer squad and the football
team can get into some trouble.
But the little ways they
misbehave,
it's a pretty big leap
to murder, Paula.
All right, well what kind
of trouble have you heard?
Nothing, really.
Hormones, popularity,
college pressures.
They can be pretty
vicious to one other.
Vicious?
That's the word
that Sophie used.
Faster, go!
You know, if you've heard
anything about my girls,
you should really tell me.
You know them better
than I do, Paula.
The football team has
the same kind of problems.
Bullying, hazing, kids
acting like spoiled brats.
We got rid of all
hazing years ago.
I was very clear with my girls.
They know that there's a
standard of conduct to uphold.
Sure, and the football team
is strictly alcohol-free.
But, c'mon, there's
only so much we can do.
These kids, they create
their own little world.
So what you're saying is:
I shouldn't be worried,
but they are up to no good?
Isn't that teenagers
in a nutshell?
Yeah, I guess.
6, 7, 8!
Don't put your knees down!
You think you can cheer
with weak little girl arms?
Push ups?
You're flat chested and
you can't even do a push up?
All right, that's enough.
You know what?
Cheer squad is about
blood, sweat, and pain.
It hurts now so it
doesn't hurt later.
You want to be the best?
Go change, I'll
see you tomorrow.
Make sure none of those girls
talk about the murder, okay?
I don't want to hear
about maybe who did it,
I don't want to hear
about the funeral plans.
Keep a code of silence, okay?
All right, head in!
Hello?
You better be careful.
Your mommy can't
always protect you.
Your nose is bleeding.
All of us squad sisters know
that our fierce passion
is what makes us great.
But Leah wants to make up lies
and complain to the school
about our fighting spirit.
Do we really want a
snitch running our team?
Team solidarity is
what's most important.
So I'm officially saying that
we can do better than Leah.
It's time for a
new head cheerleader.
Hey you.
What are you doing here?
You weren't responding
to my texts.
Sorry, I've just been
caught up with some stuff.
It's okay, it's fine.
Is something wrong?
I'm just really overwhelmed.
I know.
But that's why we
gotta stick together.
Keep each other close and safe.
Mom grounded me.
At least, I can't
have you over like this.
No unsupervised friend visits.
It's like she
thinks I'm a child.
Do you still think I did it?
No! No, I know you didn't.
It's just...
maybe we should wait
for all the drama to die down.
I hate that you feel unsafe.
Have you talked to the cops?
Heard anything about
the investigation?
Nothing, just...
What?
Just little clues.
Nothing big though.
But, if I had to guess: Reeva.
She's always wanted
to be head cheerleader.
Whatever was going on
between her and Leah,
things were
getting pretty toxic.
Reeva.
Of course.
That makes total sense.
I bet Ryan knows
something about it too.
I'll talk to him as friends,
see what's up.
You should find out what you
can about the cheer squad, too.
I will.
This is gonna work, Sophie.
We're gonna get through
this and find this killer.
Hey, not now Tyler.
C'mon, why not?
We shouldn't punish ourselves
just for being alive.
You know, if anything
it's our responsibility
to savor the time.
Every moment
with you is special.
Tyler, wait.
Wait!
Text me!
Hey, honey.
Hey!
Can you help with the rest of
the groceries?
Yeah.
Hey.
Paula! Good to see you again.
Really nice view.
I...
You know, I've been thinking
about our last conversation.
About what we owe to these kids.
And how you dodged my question.
Pardon?
I asked if you knew anything
about any bad behavior
on the cheer squad and I would
really appreciate a real answer.
I don't really listen
to cheerleader gossip.
Okay, how about
football player gossip?
What is it you
really want to hear?
Coach Parker, I'm trying
to do everything I can
to take care of the
girls on cheer squad
and clearly they're
keeping secrets from me.
What does that
have to do with me?
Whoever hurt Leah was
probably one of her friends
at the party.
Maybe someone from
the football team.
Now hold on. Don't you go
pointing fingers at my team.
I set an example for those boys:
study hard, play fair,
give respect.
We do charity fundraising three
times a year, we do a bake...
Yeah, but everybody
turns their head
if there's too much drinking,
or partying, or whatever.
I mean how much worse
does it have to get?
There's a zero tolerance policy
for any player misbehavior
on or off the field.
All right, well then how
did Tyler get on the team
with his vandalism arrests?
Tyler has proven himself
to be a diligent student
and a fine young man.
He's made a sincere
commitment to improvement.
That's a lot more important than
a couple of minor infractions.
Well I gotta break
it to you coach,
that does not make a
zero tolerance policy.
Before this tragedy,
this team was undefeated.
Paula, it is my job is
to keep that streak going.
Yes, but...
My boys need to stay
focused and determined.
Frankly, a dead cheerleader
isn't great for morale.
I need to protect
these kids, Paula.
Throwing accusations around is
just gonna make them feel worse.
What secret are you keeping?
Are you gonna tell me,
or the police?
Tyler and Leah, they
were seeing each other.
Right under Sophie's nose.
I'm sorry, I didn't want
to be the one to tell you.
Who all knew?
Ryan and Reeva.
A couple of the
other football players.
They tried to be
secretive about it,
but some things just
can't be kept a secret.
Look I'm sorry, I just
thought it would hurt less
if you didn't know.
Well, if you want to be
an example for your players,
you might want to
start with honesty.
All right, so what
do you got for me?
You first.
Okay, check this out.
So I dug a little deeper into
the cheerleaders' social media.
And pro tip: don't ever set
your password to "password".
No...
Yeah but anyway, you
were right about Reeva.
5, start doing push ups now! 6!
7, 8, don't put your knees down!
You think you can cheer
with weak little girl arms?
Okay that kind of cruelty,
that's not normal right?
I could never act like that.
She's gotta be twisted.
I mean she's a bully,
that's pretty clear.
But normal, twisted?
People can be both.
There's... there's more, too.
So it's definitely Reeva.
No, I mean there's
more of other stuff.
Like what?
Look Sophie, I'm
sorry to show you this.
I don't want to.
Just show me.
I took that picture.
So what?
You shot more than you saw.
Look.
I know this is really harsh.
I'm sorry.
I think I have tissues.
No, I'm not gonna cry over him.
Here, I'll attach them all to an
email and I'll send it to you.
Sophie?
Hey, you okay?
I'm fine. Why?
Mikey's mom just called.
And?
Mikey has been
seriously injured.
What?
Yeah, he's on the
way to the hospital,
they think he's gonna be okay.
But I just saw him a
couple of minutes ago.
They think it was a robbery,
they don't have any
suspects yet, but...
But what?
Well, it's not hard
to think that maybe
it has a connection
with Leah's murder.
Mikey had nothing to
do with Leah's death.
How could you even think that?
Sophie!
That's not what I meant...
Dammit!
Tyler.
Hey!
Hey.
I'm glad you're okay.
I mean these days.
Did you hear about what
happened to Mikey?
Yeah, but I'm not
here about that.
Okay.
We need to talk.
I know all about your cheating.
I'm sorry.
I'll keep saying I'm sorry,
because I mean it.
Stop it.
I know it wasn't
just a one night thing.
I've seen proof.
Pictures.
Videos.
Look at me.
Sophie, look at me.
I love you.
It's over, Tyler.
It just hurts too much.
Please!
I'm sorry okay, I was wrong
about everything.
And I'll do anything you want.
I'll do anything, anything,
please just don't...
I can't do this anymore!
I'm sorry!
You did this.
Sophie... Sophie!
Sophie!
You did this!
Hey mom.
Hello?
Mom?
Mom?
You were gonna
stab me with those?
Okay, hey.
How are you holding up?
I broke up with Tyler.
I found out he's
been cheating on me.
Oh honey, that's awful.
That's awful, I'm sorry.
Listen...
You are beautiful
and you are talented
and you're special
and precious, okay?
Thanks.
How did you even know
he was cheating on you?
Flying the drone with Mikey.
I saw Tyler at
Leah's party, kissing her.
He tried to deny it at first,
but there was too much proof.
I have it all on video.
Wait, you have
video of the party?
This whole time?
You have actual video of
Leah before she was killed?
Yeah, but it doesn't
show any of that.
Just the stupid party.
Honey, that's crucial evidence.
We have to give that
to the police right away.
I swore I'd keep it secret.
Okay from who, Tyler?
No, no, no.
You don't need to protect him,
especially if he's innocent.
There could be clues on that.
The police could catch
the killer from them.
No, but I've already seen it
and it doesn't show who did it.
It's just Leah hurting
me one final time.
Okay honey, listen to me.
This is bigger
than you and Tyler,
this is bigger
than you and Leah.
We've got to get that to
the police right now, c'mon.
Come on!
Okay.
Get the memory card, we'll take
it straight to the police, okay?
Okay.
Hurry honey.
Mom?
Sophie?
Hurry!
What is it, honey?
It's all gone!
All the video, the
evidence, everything!
What has happened?
Okay they're still here.
Call 911!
Hi, I'd like to report a break
in...
Stay close to me, Sophie.
Sophie, no!
Reeva.
I came here to apologize
about the other day.
I got defensive: you have
every right to ask questions
and look for the truth.
This tragedy affects
the whole community.
Right now we just need to...
Are you going to hit me
with that candleholder?
Just come in.
Mikey!
Hey, how you doing?
It's good to see you
out of the hospital.
It's good to be alive.
Let me see?
You look horrible.
Does it make me look cool?
Uh-huh.
Hi Ms. Will!
Hi Sophie.
I have pizza inside, c'mon!
I gotta give my mom props
for getting me a new computer.
This is way better
than any of the drugs
the doctors could prescribe me.
It's not quite as powerful
as your old one,
but I'm sure you'll transform
it into some sort
of customized supercomputer.
Okay, so the person
who attacked you
must have been the
murderer, right?
I honestly don't know.
I don't even remember
getting attacked,
it's just a big black
blur in my memory.
I think that might
have been the point:
to steal our memories.
They stole all of
your video files,
the originals and the
backups, even your drone.
And then they did the
exact same thing to me.
So it's obviously the murderer
covering their tracks, right?
And now all of
our evidence is gone.
Well actually, maybe not.
What do you mean?
The drone camera
makes a recording
and it streams that
video to my phone
so we can control it,
and it automatically saves
that stream to my account.
Wait, you're saying that we
might have the drone video?
I could be wrong, but...
I'm never wrong!
Yes!
That's just the miracle
of cloud storage backup.
Awesome!
You ready?
Skip to the party.
Okay...
All right, so what
are we looking for here?
Anything.
Anyone acting strange,
any sign of why
someone would want to hurt Leah.
Wait.
What are you doing?
Stop torturing yourself
with this.
Does that look like
he's kissing her,
or that she's kissing him?
Does it matter?
Yeah, it matters a lot.
Okay, it looks
like two people kissing
that have kissed
each other a lot.
I never watched this part.
Look, everyone was
watching her dance.
No wonder no one saw Leah go.
Wait a second...
Wait, you read the news right?
About how Leah was killed?
Yeah, she was
pushed down the stairs
and then the killer dumped
her body in the ravine
behind her house, probably to
make it look like an accident.
Exactly.
Pushed.
Holy hell.
It's gotta be her.
Except she's at a party and has
a dozen witnesses around her,
that's a pretty solid alibi.
There goes her alibi.
Okay so she's got means,
motive, and opportunity, but...
And there's this:
the person who robbed
my house left it behind.
Well I recognize that this.
This is Reeva's anklet.
So if we find Reeva, and
she's not wearing her anklet,
that's proof.
That's conclusive proof.
Maybe.
What other possible
explanation could there be?
Well, it was just lying
there right next to my house.
I mean it's a
perfect clue, Mikey.
A big, fat, juicy, perfect clue.
Which means either we
just solved the case,
or someone wants us
to think that we have.
I don't understand then.
I don't either.
But I'm not done
asking questions.
And I don't like the
sound of that either.
Okay, make a copy
of that for me.
I think it's time we
took this to the police.
Yes ma'am.
Thank you.
So did you invite
me here to tell me
another piece of red
hot secret gossip?
I'm all out of secrets.
Look, I'm sorry I didn't come
clean with you the other day.
We need to be working together.
The only way we're
going to help our kids
is by finding the truth.
I agree.
So the police: any
closer to making an arrest?
Your guess is as good as mine
on that one, I don't know.
How's Sophie handling
all of this?
Who does she think did it?
Well I mean, she
has some suspicions,
but no real evidence yet.
I thought we were gonna lay our
cards on the table here, Paula.
Okay, well what are your
thoughts on Reeva?
Leah's sidekick, right?
The one who's always shouting
at all the other cheerleaders.
You really think she's the one?
I think she's the
only real suspect
that we haven't eliminated.
I see her a lot,
hanging out with Ryan.
Honestly, she doesn't
seem like a killer.
She seems scared.
I think that there's a real
problem with the cheer squad.
How so?
Well I don't know, exactly.
Maybe just mean girl bullying.
Maybe more.
Before she died, Leah wanted to
tell me something in private.
And I don't know if it
was about Tyler, or Sophie,
or the problems
on the cheer squad
and I guess I'll never know.
And I just wish that I
had taken a few minutes
to hear her out.
You can't think
like that, Paula.
You're a good coach,
that's why she came to you.
I gotta confess, I'd be
relieved if it were Reeva.
All I know is my boys need to
get back to playing football
instead of worrying
about a serial killer.
Everything okay?
Yeah, it's Sophie.
Yeah I just have to get
back to check on some things.
Paula really, let me
walk you to the car.
No, thank you for
everything, really.
Wait a second!
Hey!
Oh my god, you scared me!
The detectives called
about the break-in.
Did they arrest somebody?
They wanted a full detailed list
of everything that was taken.
And?
I've got something even better.
Yeah?
I recognize that.
What the hell do you want?
The cops already
have the evidence.
It's over, so you might as
well come clean, or kill me.
The truth is we all
thought you killed Leah.
What?
You guys hated each other.
Her affair with Tyler
was the perfect motive,
plus nobody knows where you
were the night of the murder.
Tyler told me how obsessed
you are with Leah's popularity.
Just burning with jealousy,
desperate to make
the cheer squad.
Are you kidding me?
I never even had
the slightest desire
to become a friggin'
cheerleader.
Yeah? Then why are you
always following us around
with your creepy nerd friend?
We're the school's
official photographers.
Oh, so going in the locker
room and taking pictures,
is that part of your
official job description?
No, I was just looking
for information.
You're the bully, Reeva!
You're just gonna
pretend like you're not?
I'm a jerk to everyone I know.
And I was horrible to
Leah before she died.
Is that what you want to hear?
You don't understand the hours
we used to spend together,
how we used to work
together as a team.
Maybe I do.
Get in the car.
Come on!
So what, some psycho kills Leah
and we all tear
each other apart?
What does that say about us?
After what happened with Mikey,
I just feel like any
of us could be a target.
I've never felt more unsafe.
Are you kidding?
Any of us can be a
victim at anytime.
A bolt of freaking lightning
could come out of the sky
and kill us right now.
That's not the messed up part.
If the killer was
someone that Leah knew,
then that means the
killer was one of us.
If one of us can be a murderer,
then who's to say
that you couldn't crack,
or I couldn't crack?
What if instead of
becoming a better person,
I just get worse?
Hey! We're talking now, right?
We're trying to
understand each other,
maybe trying to heal this.
I put the doll in Leah's locker.
It was just a stupid prank.
I was trying to mess with her,
I knew she would go
to your mom and complain
and I thought I would
make head cheerleader.
It's so stupid now.
But, also...
I've been covering for Ryan.
It's like every time I talk
to him about the murder,
he gets shifty and weird.
Like shifty and weird how?
I mean, don't get me wrong,
I have total faith in him.
I love him.
But?
He's not a murderer!
But he might know something.
Plus, the last time
I had on my anklet,
I'm pretty sure I
was at Ryan's house.
You think he
could've planted it?
No...
God, I hope not.
But he could have.
Damn, dude, everybody's at each
other's throats right now.
You know, it's like toxic.
Yeah well, that's what
they're gonna think
as long as there's a
murderer on the loose.
Dude, no! I need you!
I can't, just be quiet.
Do you know how big this is?
If I don't get, I'll be screwed!
Come on!
Hold up, I think
I heard something.
Go check it out, go go!
Somebody's here!
Who's there?
Hey whoever you are,
you're tresspassing!
I don't see anyone man,
I think they're long gone.
I don't feel safe in
my own home.
Dude, someone's
screwing with us.
Relax man, if it was cops
they would've just arrested you.
Is that supposed to be funny?
Chill okay? Chill.
Let's be smart about this:
there's only one street
to get to your house,
which means there's
only one street to get out.
Come on.
Mom I'm fine, I just decided
to walk home to clear my head.
I'll be home in a
few minutes, okay?
Come on man,
where's your spirit?
We should just leave
her alone, all right?
Messing around like this,
it seems like it's
making everything worse.
No, we're too far in now.
We've gotta see this through.
Hey mom, sorry I'm late.
You were supposed
to come directly home.
So?
So, can't you understand
how dangerous it is?
I'm trying to protect you.
No, you're trying
to keep me hidden!
Hidden and locked up
isn't the same as safe!
Sophie...
No mom, I'm actually out there,
I'm trying to find answers.
Trying to figure out
what's going on.
No, you're not.
You're grounded.
As if that makes any sense!
You haven't given me
the bare minimum of effort!
And I have given you
plenty of warning...
Give me your cell phone.
No!
Do it.
If we do nothing, this
is never going to end.
And if you keep
stirring up trouble
that you don't understand,
this is gonna get much worse.
What does it mean?
Hey, your battery's getting low.
What do you wanna do?
I'm figuring that out, okay?
Gotta see what she knows.
Let's just go, let's
just get out of here.
It's not like you can do
anything until her mom is gone.
That lady hates you.
No, no she doesn't.
It's just misplaced emotion,
you know, basic psychology.
If Paula was Sophie's age, she'd
be super into me too, y'know?
But she's a little older, so
she's jealous of her daughter,
and she acts like she hates
me to hide her attraction.
What the hell are
you talking about?
Look, I'm going to
win back my girl.
I'm gonna make
everything right again
just like it was
before Leah's death.
Death is just a part
of life, you know.
Everybody will forget
about it and move on.
Tyler, nobody's gonna forget.
I'm gonna talk to Sophie,
tell her I love her,
and everything will
be normal again.
Everything will be good again.
Hey, Mrs. White.
I'm sorry to bother you.
Is it okay if I speak
to Sophie for a second?
I don't think that
you should be here.
I, I just wanted to tell
her that she's right,
and I'm sorry.
No hard feelings, you know?
I know that you're cheater.
And I also know that my daughter
deserves real love and that
you're too selfish to care.
Wow, I guess I deserve that.
But if that's really
how Sophie feels,
I should probably
hear that from her.
I just want to
own up to what I did.
Mom!
Let him in, we
have to talk sometime.
Please, I just want to
explain things and apologize.
I expect nothing more.
Thanks.
Hey.
And keep the door open!
All right, let's
see who has my drone.
No.
Sophie just choose us.
That's all I'm asking you for.
A fresh start.
Me and you will grow together
and we're stronger together now.
I thought you just
came to apologize.
Please, I just...
Just give me a second chance.
I can't.
I'm not saying it's impossible,
it's just that things
are really crazy right now.
I need some time to myself.
Some space to figure this out.
Look...
I've been really, really
patient with you, Sophie.
You think you're better than me?
What are you talking about?
Wow.
Looks like honest little Sophie
has a few secrets of her own.
So how long have you known?
You've just been toying
with me this whole time?
Just go.
You should learn to be
a little more grateful.
Hey, Mikey.
Why do we have
to keep doing this?
You said it was an accident.
You're not going to jail
just because Leah fell
down some stairs.
Ryan it was an accident, okay?
I didn't mean to do it.
She just couldn't
keep her mouth shut.
She was gonna tell Sophie
and screw up my whole life,
maybe even cost
me my scholarship.
I just wanted to have fun and
she had to go and piss me off!
I didn't mean to
push her down the stairs!
That's messed up, man.
You shouldn't have gone
after her or Mikey.
I've got an airtight alibi
as long as I can trust you.
We're still one step
ahead of everybody, okay?
So just keep your game face on.
You have to go.
Get out of my house!
See, that's exactly
what I wanted to do.
Sophie's not much
fun anymore, anyway.
But we got a
problem now, don't we?
Here, just take
the phone and go.
You can have all the copies
of all the video footage.
You really think I'm dumb
enough to fall for that?
No, no, no.
It's going to take a lot
more to keep you quiet.
No!
Sophie!
Stop right there!
Believe it or not, I actually
came here to be nice.
That was my plan.
Although, if I'm being
completely honest right now,
I never really have a plan!
Life is just so uncertain.
Tyler, whatever it is,
we can talk it over.
We can talk about it
and maybe find a solution.
Really?
Because I tried
that with Sophie here
and she very
wasn't interested in it.
Please, just let me go...
Shut up!
You are just like Leah.
She was cool at first too,
but then she had to go
and mess up everything.
I'm not gonna be
somebody's second choice.
Either you want to see me,
or you don't, okay?
And I think it's pretty
obvious that you love me, so...
I don't get what
you're so afraid of.
It's not like you
actually care about Sophie.
I'm not afraid of anything.
That's it, isn't it?
You're afraid.
You can't even bear
the thought of facing
sweet little Sophie...
Shut up, okay?
Just shut up about it!
We're done, I don't date losers!
Stop it, stop it!
You're gonna end up
just like your father,
in prison and rotting away
for the rest of your life.
I am not like him!
You want to see selfish?
Why don't you look
in the mirror?
At least I'm not
a pathetic loser.
I can't wait to tell
Sophie about all of this.
You're nothing compared to me.
You should've been grateful.
Tyler!
Tyler, you don't
have to do this.
You don't have to hurt her,
this is not gonna
be good for you.
Jealousy makes people do
terrible things, doesn't it?
See, when I'm having
a problem with a girl,
I don't get
possessive or jealous.
No, I just throw her away.
Mom!
Oh honey, I love you so much.
Tyler listen, you can
make the wrong choice or you
can make the right choice
here and just let her go.
I hope you just let her go.
Don't worry, I'm
going to let her go!
No! Please don't!
Love makes us do
crazy things, doesn't it?
We'll do whatever you want.
Please!
So now we're talking.
You know what I want?
More than anything
else in the whole world?
No, what?
I want you to...
Come on baby, come on!
Let's get out of here!
You're dead!
You guys are really
gonna make me hunt you down?
Come out, come out,
wherever you are.
Sophie, Sophie...
Leah was too good for you.
Honey... honey.
Okay, so after I drop you off,
I'll have just enough time
to go by the greenhouse.
They have the most beautiful...
Are you expecting someone?
No.
Hi, Mrs. White.
Hey Mikey.
I'm sorry for bothering you,
but is Sophie home?
Yeah.
Can I come in?
Thank you.
Hey.
Hey!
So I was just wondering,
because I got my license now.
I was thinking I could give
you a ride to school, if...
Yeah, it would save
my mom the trip, right?
Yeah, I mean I'm good with it
if you guys are good with it.
Very good with it!
Let's go.
You don't have to
worry anymore, mom.
Okay.
We made it.
Yeah.
Love you.
I love you more!
You guys be good.
We will!
Bye!
