Doubt it.
Well, something's different, or they wouldn't have invited us.
Maybe.
Trust your aunt.
She's been around the block a few times.
A few.
Okay, many.
A lot.
Why do you think they invited us, though?
Well, we're about to find out.
You ready?
April?
Yes.
You know, if I threw up on everything, I'm probably just gonna blame you, so.
I'd expect nothing less.
Hello?
Hi, John.
Hi, Dad.
You can come inside.
How have things been, Sarah?
The same.
Oh.
Any cows give birth recently?
Bella, she died.
Good spring, though.
Tolerable.
There was a lot of rain up in the mountains, but it didn't come down here for a while.
We thought, well, maybe it'll be too dry, but then there was a big storm about March.
Chastity's getting married soon to Jeremiah.
The father says it's a good match.
The wedding's gonna be in the spring.
April.
See you in the car.
It was nice to see you, Mom.
You should go.
[music] April, just take a minute to think about what you're doing.
Chastity, hey.
This place isn't good for you.
You're smart, and you're beautiful, and just leave with me, please.
Just for a little bit, okay?
We can talk and catch up.
Chastity, please.
Here, try one.
It's awful.
It's seasoned.
There's a difference.
I want to go back.
What?
Why would you even want to go back?
They're my family.
Will you still come to the wedding?
Did you just childlock me?
She's made her choice.
She doesn't even know what-- she's getting married, June.
She's 16.
She should be allowed to be 16.
You don't understand.
I lost my sister to a cult, too, April.
She has to be willing to go.
Or I can still grab her.
It's pretty easy.
I can just go in there, so.
She'll come back.
Well, I'll stop her.
That won't turn out well.
Okay, so what else am I supposed to do?
She's my sister.
You keep doing this over and over, maybe forever.
I knew exactly what I was going to say when I saw her.
I knew exactly what I was going to do, how I was going to get her out of there, and none of it mattered.
-None of it.
-Stop.
It matters.
It always matters.
