So, what do you say?

- You want to come sing with us?

- And if you suck?

(LAUGHS)

We don't. Here, that's us.

Listen to it, if you like it,

come check us out, practice tomorrow.

OK, cool.

- Cool. Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.

Bye.

- He likes you.

-I already got a job.

Excuse me, Officer!

Hey, did I forget to sign something?

Oh, no, no.

I just wanted to ask you something.

- I'm Sarah, Sarah Cassidy.

- Bill Weaver, what's up?

I just moved here with my daughter,

who's 17,

and we have a rental on Sycamore Lane.

And you wanted to know

if I thought it was possible

you had a 17-year-old daughter.

I would have to say no.

It's actually about Ryan Jacobson.

He drove my daughter home

the other night.

I was just wondering if you

knew anything about him. If he's...

OK?

Yeah.

Finding out that your parents

were murdered,

by your own sister, God,

that's really intense.

You'd think people would show him

a little bit of sympathy, right?

You know, I drove three hours upstate

personally to tell Ryan.

He was living with his aunt,

a senile old woman.

He had no one taking care of him.

He was taking care of her, actually.

Anyway, he moved back here with her,

she died about a year ago.

The Kid's had a tough, tough life.

Look, I've never had

any problem with him,

and as far as I know,

no one else has either.

But they sure like to b*tch about him

and their property values, don't they?

Yeah, I have heard people doing that.

- 710-49 at Main and Jackson. Over.

- Excuse me.

OK.

Sorry. I gotta go.

Thanks, officer.

Oh, hey, no.

it's, uh, Bill, OK?

Bill.

- I'll see you around?

- Yeah.

- Hi.

- Hey.

I... made you a CD.

Wow, thank you.

Oh, my gosh, my page.

Yeah... I wanted to listen

to some more of your music.

That's not weird, is it?

No. Not unless you didn't like it.

No, actually,

I thought it was beautiful.

Good answer. Whoa!

Stocking up

the old fallout shelter, huh?

Um, yeah. I don't like to go to town

more than I have to.

Wow, it's big.

What's up there?

Construction never really got finished

on this part of the house.

I don't have a wall or anything,

but I moved back here when I came back.

It's a little bit small.

Well, at least you're not a sleepwalker.

- ls this the family?

- Yeah.

Oh, Ryan, you're so cute.

And that's Carrie Anne.

Wow. Her eyes are so blue.

Your family looks really happy.

It must've been nice,

having everyone together.

Having two parents.

Carrie Anne was the head of the family.

After the accident, things changed.

Is that when they sent you away?

I've never really talked to anyone

about this stuff before.

ELISSA:
What's in here?

I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have...
