[Applause] [Music] hey Mom hi hi hi how's school it's fine you'll ruin your supper that way you sound like my mother well considering how long I've known you I think I had the right to a few maternal feelings ree you want to go put the laundry in the dryer please and do I want to maybe I should rephrase that h Mrs Shields do you remember how old I was when I moved here of course I do you had to have been the cutest little button of a three-year-old all those freckles and that mop of red hair what were my parents like then well like they are now I guess no actually I think they were a little more strict back then what do you mean well I think older parents tend to be a little more cautious with their children your mom and dad knew where you were every minute of the day of course that young you have to watch your kids but even playing out of your own backyard or over here with ree your mother was always right out there with you keeping watch you're running out of room here yeah almost Reed what's your earliest memory I mean how young were you well I guess I would have been about 2 years old I remember being really cold cuz my sister Lizzy locked me out of the house and I didn't have any clothes on what happened as usual Lizzy told Mom I ran away I got in trouble and she got a cookie for finding me you don't like your sister much do you she's okay I always like her more when she's away at school though she comes home uh tomorrow you know I thought she had that big bar exam coming up uh yeah well already took that he's coming home to wait for the results re Michael's on the phone [Music] come on I'm just trying to figure out who I look like which feature I got from which parent now you got your eyes from your [Music] dad and your ears unfortunately for me but you're both so tall you got your height from your grandmother my mom was barely 5 ft tall as she Grew Older she seemed to shrink one minute she was at my shoulder and the next she was at my waist [Applause] how come there are no baby pictures of [Music] me um well that's because we didn't get around to buying a camera till you were what 3 4 years old you could have taken me to one of those baby Studios we kept meaning to but we just never got around to it of course I'm sorry now I could kick myself for it [Music] Jamie I'm going to be stuck at the hospital for a few more hours one of the volunteers is late so I'm covering for her till she gets here well do me a favor and set the table for dinner okay honey and I'll pick up some Chinese on the way home all right thanks see you soon [Music] hey jackon [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] hi how was school Mom I need my birth certificate what do you want it for I'm going for my learner's permit I need it for that I thought we already discussed that can I at least see it I don't think I've ever seen it before that's because it's with the other important papers in the safety deposit Bank well let's go get it can you see that I'm busy I've got another ESL student coming in an hour and I've got to prepare the lesson then we'll go tomorrow the banks are closed on Saturday okay we'll go Monday we'll go when I'm ready to go now look I've got to get this lesson ready just leave me alone okay [Music] you could at least taste the suaki it's your favorite soup Loy Coco van what I'd really like right now is a chocolate milkshake and a hamburger just like everyone else are you getting pleasure out of this what hurting your mother like this no no no you volunteer at the hospital all day long and you come home and cook a beautiful meal and all you can do is moan you know there are a lot of kids out there right now having macaroni and cheese wish I was you may be a teenager but you're pushing the envelope a little too [Music] far I'm sorry I think she's still angry with me about the birth certificate she asked for it again this morning I hope we haven't made a [Music] mistake Jamie why have you been so hostile lately I don't know you don't know well I suggest you figure it out this is an ugly mood you're in and I want you to get rid of it CU it's getting old real fast and don't you ever hurt your mother like that [Music] [Applause] [Music] again maybe she's not my mother [Music] [Music] hey girlfriend what's up can I trace a 1800 call and who trace it um whoever if you call a one 100 member and you don't say anything can they find out where you call from I don't know probably why do you want to know oh my God ree Shields and Jessica get around or what I think she's dated after school you know he's not the most intelligent guy in the world but Jessica I'm saddened to say that reev Shields has definitely gone down in my estimation what are you doing here I thought you'd be out on a date with Jessica or something well you thought wrong didn't you squirt you know I'm getting really sick of that stupid nickname sorry you think it's funny wait but this isn't turning out like I wanted it to okay here goes Jenny you done like my little sister well I'm not Reef yeah well I found that out didn't I but in the leaves the other day and then afterwards I know I was ignoring you but your growing up just kind of snuck up on me you know it's going to take a little getting used to I like you Genie but let's just take it day by day okay okay [Music] [Applause] [Music] remember when we were little you're always talking about getting married having two kids and buying them shoes a little boy and a little girl and I don't know why shoes oh you have a closet full of them you must have some sort of a shoe fetish or something come on let's find a restroom I got to go oh I don't know maybe I should go back and get those white pumps I mean I like them and all that it's just that they're so well white of course what I really want is go back to get those PR black SPS [Music] think I should got my dad by them that way he could take all the need by the way I forgot to tell you the cheerleader's been making out like she's my mother again I mean who does she think she is like I'm going to listen to anything she says so I told her to her face I said look I've got one mother and it ain't you lady I have to know please why are there no baby pictures of me why won't you let me see my birth certificate and please tell me why is there a trunk in the Attic filled with things that belong to a girl named Hannah Hanah is our daughter Janie she's your mother you're not really our daughter you're our [Music] granddaughter when Hannah was 18 she joined a young people's group called The the children of the natural order my mother was the member of a cult why didn't you stop her well they seemed innocuous at first your mother and I were happy that Hannah had finally started making some friends see she always seems Seems so lost somehow she was always um searching for something we got a lawyer we went to the police but Hannah was considered an adult next thing we knew they moved no forwarding address you were wearing this the first time I saw you I remember I was working in the kitchen and there was a knock at the back door and I opened it and there was Hannah with you you should have told me just never seemed to be the right time and my father what about him I'm sorry baby Hannah never told us his name but didn't my mother want me oh it wasn't no it wasn't that she didn't want you it was more complicated than that there were there were rumors that uh the cult members were were doing things to the children Hannah was convinced that the cult was coming back to get you we were all terrified but she went back yes yes yes she [Music] did and she gave you to us the chance for a stable life was the one thing Hannah could give [Music] you I think it was the most [Music] important it feels so good to have Hannah in her home again the papers in the trunk said Hannah javson for javson was our name before we changed it to jasine Hannah was afraid of the cult so we moved and we changed our name and then we made the hardest decision in our lives we stopped writing to Hannah and we did that for you [Music] carlington this is nuts you know that your parents are your grandparents that doesn't make any sense that's what they say but it doesn't explain the mil carton does it why didn't you just show them the mil cart I mean maybe they would had an explanation no if Hannah or the cult is trying to find me you know how my parents would react or what if us just your real dad looking for you ree my dad is my real dad it doesn't matter who made up the smoke cart and if someone is trying to track me down I've got to find them it's the only way I can protect my mom and dad there are five SS listed in Harlington let's get started then [Music] hope we have better luck here than the last three stops you know you don't have to do this yes I do wait a [Music] sec see you later take it easy I'm going to wait for death bye see you bye [Applause] [Music] guys all right oh my God check out their red hair get us out of here bve go go please get us out of [Music] here they lied to me G my parents lied to me a [Music] [Applause] [Music] no matter what I do I just keep seeing all those redheads I wish they would go away they're just like this this thing waiting for me to make a mistake well if you can't stop thinking about him I want you to give him a call write him a letter at least let him know you're all right and tell them what that I might be their daughter well if they really are your parents they deserve to know you're okay so call them up and say that I walked away from you and I don't even know if I screamed or fought I mean how could I have otherwise Hannah couldn't have taken me what kind of a kid doesn't fight back when they're kidnapped a 3-year-old [Music] [Applause] [Music] Dear Mr and Mrs Sans I know this may sound strange but I think I may be your daughter this is hard for me because I know that Jennifer was kidnapped only I have a wonderful mother and father and a Wonderful Life and I've always been very happy so I just don't see how I could be Jennifer but I I keep having these memories shopping for shoes a redhaired woman a big man with a beard I don't know maybe they aren't memories at all maybe they're just figments of my imagination if only there was an easy way for me to find out the truth but there isn't no matter what I do it seems that someone is going to be hurt I wish I knew the right thing to do if only I could remember more Janie but I just don't I think your next class is waiting I guess I'm scared to phone you because you might call the police about my parents but you can't because they are my parents my Mom and Dad hey [Music] coming I can't believe that my parents kidnapped me it does not make sense my boyfriend thinks I should send you this letter he thinks you deserve some peace of mind but I don't know if I can take the chance an I Wish I I wish I knew a safe way to tell you that if I am Jennifer I'm all right and you can stop worrying now 14 pairs of socks in 7 days so I don't like smelly feet you know something next week I'm going to put you on laundry detail what I don't understand is how come my parents never heard about the kidnapping who knows well maybe I never made the local papers and they've never really been TV Watchers they were probably just distracted I mean Hannah was home and they had a little kid running around I thought you weren't going to talk about this carlington stuff for a while I can't help it well I guess not enough of a distraction for you huh I can't tell you how tired I am of hearing about this day after day after day R you don't think this is important I may have been kidnapped and you don't think this is important you know I really try to get past the fact that you're so immature but you really haven't made it easy for if I am so immature then maybe we just shouldn't see each other anymore fine fine I mean it's not like I can count on you anyway yeah that's really would oh yeah hi Lizzy Jamie God you must have grown at least an inch since I saw you last congratulations on taking your bar exam that must have been pretty tough thanks see you later [Music] guys are such doic he really isn't all that good-looking the guy's a pig no he's okay well if you ever need anybody for some sort of guy thing you can always call me thanks Jason oh my poor baby maybe we should have a pity party for you huh [Music] there to go what I [Music] do Jamie what's wrong I wrote a letter to the SS and I put it right there and now it's gone it must have fallen out when the clip broke ree if someone finds that they might mail it and then the SS will know where I am wait I don't want to play amateur psychiatrist Janie but maybe you didn't lose the letter by accident I'm so scared Reef I know you are but we're in this together [Music] right I mean all couples fight [Music] why do I get the feeling that something's going on Lizzy's here to be our legal counsel we need legal counsel and reev is here for moral support Jamie I hate to tell you this he scaring [Applause] [Music] me Hannah hello what have you done to us now I'm so sorry I wrote the letter I never ever meant to mail it I promise you wait wait we don't even know whether the Letter's been mailed it might not have been maybe but if it was it would be better if you came forward and contacted the Sans first before they had a chance to call in the authorities what are we going to say to them oh they're going to think we're insane no Mom it's okay it's okay Lizzie will contact the sanss and she'll tell them that everything is all right and I want to be left alone and that way they'll stop worrying all right stop worrying oh honey do you think that I've ever stopped worrying about Hannah do you think that there is a night in my life when I haven't prayed for her safety when I haven't wondered if we did the right thing I of all people know what it's like to lie in bed night after night wondering what happened to my little girl mom don't cry please if I had one wish in this world it would be that no parent would ever suffer a missing child and I made it happen to another mother what are you doing no no what if they take me away mom I'm your daughter don't you see if we don't take action we have kidnapped you friends of missing children may I help you no hello yes who is this my name is um um I think I might be one of the kids on the milk cartons I think I'm Jennifer [Music] Sans I Love Her Miranda but I swear to God if Hannah was here right now I would you're not mad at Hannah honey you're mad at the situation I'm furious with her look at the grief she's brought into our lives Cal down and Jan we're both just nervous look at what she's done to the [Applause] Sands you're out of your mind if you think we'll agree to that you don't have a choice you seem to forget that is our daughter that you have hidden way please she is our daughter too no don't you ever you did not lie in that hospital for 32 hours you did not nurse that sweet little baby at 2: in the morning and you certainly did not spend 13 years of your life believing that child is alive knowing and fighting off the the nightmares and the guilt please can we just take a moment to calm ourselves and think about Jennifer's best interest as your counselor I'd like to advise that Mr Jasmine Mr jasine you have one week to give us back our daughter under our conditions then you'll see us in court how we feel about our I'm feel oh nonsense I'm suddenly expected to stop loving her turn my back and walk away I'm sorry Janie it's been a great 13 years but you just go off and have a good life with your new parents understand what you're saying but we've got to do what's right do you think giving up Janie is right how would you feel if this situation were reverse I am not giving up another daughter period so I was thinking maybe we could share custody with him like some divorc couples do no the jine stole her Jonathan they stole my little girl I want her back we don't know that they stole her or that they even knew about her we don't know that they didn't who's to say that this Han a kid isn't a figment of their imagination s they seem like honest folks if they didn't want to tell the truth they wouldn't have come forward in the first place I don't care I'm not going to share her with anyone don't ask me to that just is not possible I could take your money I can take a lot of your money but I agree with your counselor if you and the Sands could work this out together it'll be better for everyone concerned but the Sands don't want us to have any contact with Jam for a period of 3 months after that they've agreed to visitation rights how can we go 3 months without seeing our daughter how don't the Sands go 13 years without seeing theirs there's another thing to consider the FBI has asked to sit in on your next meeting why kidnappings a federal offense and since they are investigating Hannah and you why are they investigating us to see if there are any grounds to indict you for kidnapp me oh Lord daddy if it was the other way around if you knew the Sans had Hannah would you take them to court to get her back I suppose I would are you going to let them take me away what do you want us to do I don't know them then don't worry about it we'll take care of it we need at least 3 months alone with Jenny no visits no phone calls no letters we need time with our daughter time to get to know her and time for her to get to know us Mr Jasmine Mrs Jasmine and we'll be able to see her again after 3 months once a month at first and then after 6 months if everything goes okay I'm sure we'll be able to work at a different visiting schedule okay and the FBI will leave Hannah alone Miss jine we can't promise you anything since there's an ongoing kidnapping investigation inol here if Hannah is responsible appropriate action will have to be taken Mr Mrs [Applause] jine then we're all agreed to the terms why do you all treat her like some business [Music] deal Mr Miss J I know this is a very difficult time for you it's been decided that you won't be charged in his kidnapping investigation however there are some unresolved issues regarding Hannah and if you should hear from her would expect you to contact no I won't go you don't have a choice I'm sorry baby daddy you you take care of this you promised me please please you had no right to tell them I would go Mr Sans is it true that the other family just refuses to return your daughter will you be pressing charges for kidnapping have you actually talked to Jennifer Mr Sans did you ever D that your daughter was alive are they going to let you talk anytime soon just please anything at all swe you been holding down the fort well I'm trying to we had to take the phone off the hook cuz it kept ringing yeah well same thing's

mother and father about Hannah javson what about Hannah well we know a little bit more about what happened to her honey she's dead she was a prostitute well agent molison said that that's not that unusual for an unhappy desperate girl like Hannah maybe she couldn't find what she wanted in the cult or maybe the cult threw her out for some reason we'll never know how did she die hepatitis 5 years ago do Mom and Dad know that Hannah's dead the FBI went and spoke with the justments before they came here oh God I'm going to call them leave them alone I want to talk to my I said no Jennifer you put that phone down you're not my father you can't I am your father now you listen to me you want to call up the gments then what what are you going to say you want to talk to them about their dead prostitute daughter why because you're hurting because you're in pain you seem to think you're the only one who suffer in here let me tell you something the Jans are suffering 10 times more than you are their daughter their real daughter is a prostitute and a kidnapper and God knows what else as long as they had you they could pretend otherwise but now they have to face the truth Jenny they just found out about Hannah let's just give him a few days to get over the shock I hate you [Music] Jenny my name is Janie jasine I'm the daughter of Frank and Miranda jman and I want to go home [Applause]
