People at the Center said my family could be here. Mom? Dad?

I'm not...overly fond of being stuck here sometimes.

No, honey. I'm sorry, I don't. I wish I did.

It's that bad?

It's cool. You can know me here maybe?

Not all of it, it's just...a lot sometimes.

I would like to get to know you.

A lot how?

That’s cool with me.

I had a temporary lapse of sanity after...well it doesn't matter what happened...your sister wanted me to go join her on this farm and it turns out that it was a cult. Shortly after your father brought me back home we were sent here.

You're sure?

Which sister? Like Manson family or Jonestown?

Yeah, I’m sure.

Polly. Jonestown, I guess. I don't really know. She hasn't spoken to me since your father saved me. I don't know what I did. But it's fine. I'm fine. Everything's all good.

I would like that.

You were in a cult. I really doubt it’s all fine. You don’t have to lie about it to me.

That may not entirely be the farm's fault.

Things happened to me back home, but I wouldn’t worry too much about them.

You're my mom. Of course I'm gonna worry about what happened to you if it was bad.

It’s embarrassing.

I didn’t know that Harold was a serial killer and when I found out he tried to strangle me.

He tried to strangle you? Is he still alive?

Aren't people like that really good at hiding who they really are? You shouldn't be embarrassed that he lied and hurt people. That's all on him.

Well I mean he did strangle me but I’m fine! No lasting damage! Unfortunately he is.

Yeah, I guess. I just know everything about everyone else so I’m a bit mortified I didn’t know this honey thing about the man I was married to for a quarter of a century.

It's okay to say you aren't fine. I wouldn't be.

I'm sorry that happened to you.

I don't want to be looked at as weak.

Thank you, honey.

Do you think I'm weak because the Sisters hurt me?

I didn't know that the Sisters hurt you.

I didn't even know that you were at the Sisters until I tried to find you -- I had picked a family, I thought you had been adopted. If I had known...

They didn't send me wherever you picked out. And no one ever wanted me when people would come by to pick out kids..

But now that you know, do you think I'm weak?

I know, and I'm so sorry. I wanted you.

No, of course not, Charles.

I know. You - my you - has told me that a lot.

I don't see how it's different. If I'm not weak, you're not weak. He was your husband. He was supposed to protect you and be there for you. The Sisters should have done that for me when I had nobody, but they didn't. That's on them. Just like that's on Hal. He's the weak one with something to be ashamed, not you.

I'm still so sorry.

Hal didn't...we didn't have that sort of marriage. Part of the reason I didn't keep you was to get you away from him. I didn't have anywhere else to go. I could have left, I guess, once your sisters were older, but I was never strong enough to. What they did to you was wrong. I would sue the life out of them if they were here.

It’s okay. I promise.

You’re plenty strong, even if you can’t see it. You didn’t deserve what happened to you.

I wouldn’t stop you if you did sue them. They should get shut down.
