(Carter) Previously on "Finding Carter"...
(Carter) I have been hanging out at Jared's.
He's way too old for you.
You don't get to tell me who I can and can't date.
If you live in this house,
then you have to follow the rules.
Well, maybe I need to find somewhere else to live then.
- My dad's up for parole. - Max.
I'm gonna try to get them to keep him in prison.
I did a background check on Jared.
Did you know he's married and has a daughter?
Tell them it's not true, Jared.
It's not how I wanted you to find out.
I see a future with you and my little girl.
I'm falling in love with you.
It's very difficult for me to watch you become a woman,
because I didn't get to see you being a little girl.
I just need some space.
(knocking)
I was wondering if you wouldn't mind me staying here with you.
Of course, you're always welcome here.

Well, I could run out and get some cereal.
- What kind? - Oh, no, no, no, it's okay.
I have to get ready for work anyway.
Okay, um...

I know you're not.
How did you even know I was here?
Did you follow me?
Educated guess. Now, grab your things.
- You can't be here. - No, you can't be here, Mom.
Carter, you're coming home with me right...
- Stop! - No, let it go!
It's not my place to get in the middle.
You're absolutely right. It's not your place.
Carter, maybe you should just go.
What?
What are you trying to do?
I'm trying to do what's best.
And maybe it's best if you just go home.
I can't believe either of you.
Why don't you two stay here and eat pancakes?
I have to get ready for work.
I mean, it's like Katniss
staying at President Snow's house.
I'm sure she has her reasons.
Are you serious?
She basically re-kidnapped herself.
I know that it's weird,
but it's not like Mom and Carter
are getting along right now.
That's Mom being Mom, you just gotta deal.
Yeah, well, we've known Mom
for a lot longer than Carter has.
We're used to her.
Apparently, we can't really understand why Carter feels
the way she does about Lori.
I know how she should feel.
Well, you can't tell people how to feel, Grant.
Yeah, and people don't change, Taylor.
Well, maybe they would if they got on
the right meds and got help.
Have they brainwashed you, too?
I'm just saying, she doesn't seem like the same crazy woman.
The same crazy woman that held you at gunpoint?
Maybe you should go live with her, too.
Grant.

Hey.

You still upset with me?
You still married?

Look, Carter, I'm sorry.
I should have told you, I was wrong.
Yeah.
You still have feelings for her, Jared?
No.
Then why on Earth didn't you just tell me?
Because, it was too painful and ugly.
And she's got my daughter, and the whole thing is a mess.
What kind of mess?
What are you talking about?
She won't let me see my daughter.
She holds the custody thing over my head.
She doesn't show up to court,
and every time I try to file for divorce,
she just hires another lawyer.
I can't afford to fight that.
She sounds awful.
She's pretty bad.
Well, you were the one who was once in love with her.
That was a long time ago.
You guys cool?
Trying to be.
We all have a past, you know?
Yeah.
What's she like?
His ex? Her name is Sarah.
She used to work here.
- She used to work here? - Yeah.
Were you guys friends?
We were friendly.
I still run into her sometimes.
She works at that cute little boutique downtown.
It's always sort of awkward whenever I run into her.
I was Jared's friend first.
How long were they together?
A year, maybe?
They were a terrible couple,
if it makes you feel any better.
It actually does make me feel a little better.
The fabric cavalry has arrived.
Hi, baby.
Hey. Thanks, Mom.
Boy, this area needs something bold and bright over here.
Really? I was thinking of a neutral.
What fun would that be?
How about mimosa?
Why do they always have to have stupid names?
Why can't they just call it, I don't know, yellowish-orange?
Not feeling it, okay.
Rosé?
Mom, I'm not picking out my fabric color
based on your favorite wine.
Brandy.
Is there a color that's not alcohol?
I know you hate that fabric up in the sunroom.
I don't want you to make the same mistake.
Actually, I love the fabric in the sunroom.
You're the one who hates the fabric in the sunroom.
Well, it's so drab.
I don't even know why I asked you here.
I need your help, Mom, not your criticism.
Overreacting.
For once, is it too much to ask that someone just support me?
You asked me to bring over my swatches.
I bring over my swatches.
What else am I supposed to do?
For crying out loud.

Well, you guys have to throw that thing tonight,

The worst. Complete loser.
And I have a kid with him, so who's the idiot now?
I guess sometimes you just don't see it coming.
Yeah.
My therapist says you don't really know anyone
for three to six months.
But I just felt like I knew him, you know?
Yeah, I get it.
Big mistake.
How's it going in there?
(Bird) Great.
So, um...
how old's your daughter?
She's two.
Most beautiful baby in the world.
That's why it's so insane to me

Yeah.

Okay, well...
thanks for coming in, ladies.
Yeah, thank you, bye.
She blamed it all on Jared.
- I heard. - I don't get it.
He said she was this awful, crazy terrible person.
The woman in there was just... nice.
And really pretty and great taste in clothes,
I must add.
Not helping, Bird.
Well, what are you gonna do?
I don't know.
I don't know who to believe now.
But wouldn't all their custody stuff
be filed in court documents?
Wouldn't they tell the truth?
Yeah, actually.
Carter, everybody has an ex that haunts them.
Either it's a good haunt, like "Casper",
or it's like the "Blair Witch".
Either way, you gotta figure out how to deal.
Yeah.
You know what the worst part about this is?
That the guy I'm seeing
is still married and maybe a deadbeat dad?
No. I really liked those shirts.
Yeah, that truly is the worst part.
(glasses clinking)
I know it's a little early.
Not by my watch.
(chuckling)
Consider this a peace offering.
I had a terrible morning,
and I took it out on you and your swatches,
and I'm sorry.
Accepted.
This about David?
No, David and I are fine, for once.
I mean, it's hard having him away,
but he offered to come home, and I said no.
I can handle things here.
Well, it's okay to ask for help sometimes.
Here's the thing.
Carter slept over at Lori's last night.
Oh, Christ.
And I went over there this morning.
No!
Yeah, I couldn't help it, Mom.
And seeing them together, it was terrible.
Well, I don't blame you, though, honey, I really don't.
Maybe it's time to back off from Carter
for just a little bit, for a little while, you know?
Because whatever it is you're doing, it's not really working.
So I just continue to let her do whatever she wants to do?
Well, she's already doing what she wants to do.
Sometimes, you just gotta let someone make their own mistakes.
And it's really hard to watch.
I know, honey.
But you know, Carter is a survivor.
I think she's gonna do okay.
It's you I'm worried about.
You know, I get that it's hard to understand
why our sister is staying at her felon mother's house,
but Grant has got to get used to it.
(phone alert)
Is that about your dad?
No, it's my phone bill.
I just went over my data again.
When are you supposed to hear?
Any day.
God.
Why does everything have to be so stressful?
Maybe you, me and Grant should just go to your place,
eat a bunch of junk food, watch a movie,
away from our parents and felons and grandmothers.
Let's go, I'm ready.
Will you just ask Grant for me?
Because he's still mad at me.
Please.
Oh, hey, Grant.
Yeah, I'm right across the hall.
You know I can hear everything you say.
So are you in?
Fine, I guess.
Enthusiasm is noted.

Yeah, of course.

Yeah, I miss you, too.
Weird car hug?
Mm-hm.
Hey, I want in on this.
Get in.
How are you?
Good. Fine.
Terrible, I don't know, how are you?
I'm okay.
Things at the house have been kind of weird
since Mom figured out you were at Lori's.
And then Grant found out, and that was hard, but...
I'm sorry.
No, it's okay.
I know you have your reasons.
So what's up?
I kind of need a favor.
(Elizabeth) What are you asking me?
You want me to open sealed court documents?
Yes.
What? You're the one who told Carter
about the wife and the kid.
Don't you want to know the details?
Did Carter ask you to ask me?
(scoffs) No.
Oh, God, you're a horrible liar.
Okay, first she's furious when I investigated,
and now she wants me to.
What is the difference?
I'm worried about her, I know you're worried about her.
Of course I am.
But if she mistrusts Jared this much,
maybe she should take that as a sign.
Maybe she will.
Depending on what you find.
Why didn't she ask me herself?
Because you guys aren't in the best place right now.
You know, I've made a lot of mistakes lately,
and snooping into Jared's life might be one of them.
And I had a very wise woman tell me that I should
let Carter make her own mistakes.

What's up?
Listen, Parker and I went
to one of those underground parties tonight,
and I just thought you should know,
we talked to Carter.
She was there?
Not just there, no, she seemed to be
running the damn thing.
(Grant) Thanks for letting me spend the night... good pie.
You know we love the pie.
Listen, honey.
I know things are rough at home right now.
And when are they not?
But...
don't be a stoner.
You have to face life sober.
Mostly sober.
I mean, I just miss Carter.
I wish there was something I could do.
There is... call her.
Guilt trip her.
Bribe her, beg her to come home.
You think that'll work?
Well, someone's got to do something,
'cause that girl is definitely not coming home on her own.
(knocking)
Oh, hey.
Hi, is Carter here?
Come on in.
I'm just gonna...
Hey.
What are you doing here?
I wanted to show you these.
What's this?
These are court documents.
A year ago, when I filed for custody,
and I was denied because she fought me
every way she could.
My child support payments,
every month, on time,
for my daughter's entire life.
Jared, I'm really sorry.
I know.
And I know you're scared.
I'm scared, too.
I just want you to trust me.
I do.
I will.
I missed you last night.
I don't sleep well without you.
Yeah, I miss you, too.
Your side of the bed?
Still open, so...

Okay, I'm gonna get the waffles, and you get the eggs,
and then we'll split it, okay?
Whatever you want, babe.
That's what I want.
Look, I'm really, really proud of you.
- I'm gonna e-mail her. - No, wait a hot second, okay?
You don't want to seem too eager.
I am, though. Babe, just think.
I get some gigs up in New York,
we can get a studio apartment
for the summer.
Party all night, sleep all day.
No, I will be painting during the day,
and then I'll be selling my paintings on the sidewalk
until a dealer takes notice, then invites me to have a show.
All while I'm asleep.
How awesome would that be?
Sounds like it.
I love you, baby.
I love you, too.
Whoa.
Maybe we should pull over.
Yeah.
Where are you going?
Oh, um...
to Jared's?
Mm-hmm.
Well, I know you know what you're doing,
but please be careful.
You sound like Elizabeth.
Because we both sound like your mom.
(laughing)
Well, um...
thanks for letting me stay here.
Anytime.
Bye.
Special delivery.
Good morning.
Morning.
Hey.
You guys hungry?
No, I... I had pie.
Pie?
Pie for breakfast.
Hey, pie is nutritious.
So you were vague when you called last night.
What inspired this sleepover?
It's a long, very uninteresting story.
How are you doing?
How am I doing?
Honestly, I'm not sure.
I'm worried.
I think Carter might have gotten herself
into a little bit of trouble.
What kind of trouble?
I'm not sure.
But what if what you said about
letting Carter make her own mistakes isn't right?
Don't worry about Carter. Grant's gonna call her.
He's gonna guilt her into coming home.
What happened to your hands-off approach?
I meant your hands.
But someone's got to do something.
I mean, for Christ's sake, the girl's 17.
She's got to come home.
Let's just go look at the swatches again, okay?
You know, get our minds off this.
I think that's a great idea.
Okay.

Hey.
Hey, let me take your bag.
Oh, thanks.
You know you don't have to knock, right?
Oh, yeah.
Just wanted to make sure you were decent.
Well, what would you have done if I wasn't?
Um... this?
So I cleaned out a drawer for you,
and tomorrow, I'm gonna get you some closet space.
But for right now, don't open it,
because I just took everything
that was in the drawer and threw it in the closet.
(laughs)
Okay, well, I will consider myself warned.
Thank you.

(Carter) Next time on "Finding Carter"...
You don't even know this man.
Mom, do you really think I would be
moving in with him if I didn't know him?
I wasn't cool selling before you forced me to do it...
We got a party tomorrow night.
I'll cut you in, 20%.
I'm driving up to see my mom.
I'm worried he's gonna come by, try to contact you.
Funny you should mention that.
Hey, son.
