5 quotesConsequences of Manipulation and Deception
Esther
Are you looking for this? Poor Sister Abigail. I couldn't have done it myself, you know. Max is just as guilty as I am.
[she pulls out the hammer from Max's backpack; pulls out her bloody clothes.]
Daniel
Whatever Max did, you made her do it!
Esther
Think about it. How did she even know what was up here? It's always better to burn the evidence. If they find these things, they won't just be coming for me. They'll be coming for Max, too. Is it really what you want?
[she pulls out Max's drawings from her pocket.; puts the drawing on the pile.; pulls out the lighter fluid.; begins spraying lighter fluid on the pile; lights a match.]
Daniel
Wait! What are you doing? Are you crazy?! Let me out! Let me out of here!
[Esther drops the match and sprays more lighter fluid all over the treehouse.; Esther keeps spraying the fluid all over the tree house.; The fire ignites the fluid, setting the treehouse on fire.; Esther climbs down the lighthouse and closes the door as Daniel rushes through the door.; Esther locks the door from the treehouse.]

Unexpected Discovery in a Tense Moment
Jack Stanfield
Where are they?
[Jack arrives home]
Bill Cox
Through here.
Jack Stanfield
Jesus. What is this?
[Jack sees family tied up]
Andy Stanfield
Daddy!
Jack Stanfield
Why have you done this for god's sake? They're children.
[removes tape from their mouths]
Bill Cox
I said if they were trouble. Were they trouble?
[Referring to why the family has tape over their mouths]
Vel
They were noisy.
Willy
Yes. We made an executive decision.
Bill Cox
You are a criminal, Willy, not an executive.
Willy
Yeah, but I thought you said if...
Bill Cox
Shut up, Willy.
Andy Stanfield
Daddy.
Jack Stanfield
I wanna know what you want. And I wanna know now.
Bill Cox
Beth, I am sorry about all of this. I... I am, but well, there we are. Uh. I need you to talk to your husband. He listens to you. I need you to make him understand that if he doesn't do exactly as I ask, I will kill you and your two children. But if you can make him listen Beth, if you can make him do what I want, you'll all walk away from this unpleasantness, unscathed. Not because I'm a nice man, simply because there'll be no reason for me to hurt you. Make sense? Can I rely on your cooperation?
Jack Stanfield
Just tell him yes.
Beth Stanfield
Yes.
Bill Cox
Sarah?
Sarah Stanfield
Fine.
Bill Cox
And you big fella?
Andy Stanfield
Maybe.
Beth Stanfield
Andy.
[warningly]
Bill Cox
No, it's all right. It's honest.
