- Okay, this waiting around
is driving me crazy.
I'm going out for some air.
- I think I'll join you.
- Jilly okay?
- She's resting.
Mr. Mitchell, where's your wife?
- She went for some air.
- I need to speak to you both together.
- Fine, may I see Jilly?
- Briefly, she's sedated.
- My beautiful, sweet Jilly, what happened to you?
It seems like yesterday I was just taking you
to your first ballet class.
You hated it.
You hid your slippers in my briefcase, remember?
Little did you know, your mother had an extra pair.
Ended up top of your class.
No matter what you did, you always lit up
our world, my world.
I could use some of that light right now.
From the moment you were placed in my arms,
I promised that I would do
everything in my power to protect you.
We love you Jilly.
I'm so sorry.
- Ma'am, ma'am, I'm looking for my daughter's room,
Jilly Mitchell.
- Okay, hold on one second.
589, this way.
- Right.
- I'm so sorry.
God, please, don't let anything happen,
please don't.
- Why didn't you text me sooner?
Jilly, oh my god.
Oh baby, mommy's here, mommy's here honey.
- And grandma's here too pumpkin.
- Not a scratch on you my precious baby.
- Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell, may I have a word with you?
- Doctor.
- Your daughter is extremely lucky to be alive.
- Was anyone else hurt?
- No.
- Thank god, we don't need another law suit.
- You mean this has happened before?
- Not to this extent but there have been.
- Let's stick to my daughter's condition please.
- Mild concussion, no broken bones and bruising.
She'll be very sore for a while.
- Oh, a blessing.
- Jilly will be discharged after we complete
our observations and tests.
And I strongly recommend she go
immediately into treatment.
- Of course, we'll get her the best
physical therapy there is, right honey?
- No, I'm talking about drug rehabilitation, ma'am.
- What?
- Your daughter had a drug overdose,
EMT techs brought her back with Narcan.
- What?
- I think somebody else is on something in this room.
- I know this is a shock.
- That's an understatement.
- We found traces of heroine and fentanyl in her blood.
- Are you sure you have the right chart?
My granddaughter is an intelligent, prayerful child.
- Ma'am, I'm sorry to interrupt
but intelligence can make matters worse,
addiction doesn't discriminate.
Bottom line, people are over-prescribed morphine
to Xanax for pain all too often.
People simply aren't built to manage
these types of powerful drugs, as is the case with Jilly.
- After her riding accident last year,
she was prescribed pain meds.
- Empty bottles from two different pharmacies
were found in her possession.
- That's impossible.
- No, it's not, Mrs. Mitchell.
- She stopped seeing Dr. Bevan months ago.
- He's an expert on pain management,
he's been treating Jilly for some time.
- That's quite the problem, for years.
Right now, let's focus on Jilly's addiction.
- Stop calling it that.
I can't believe we're in this position.
- Well, we are.
- I'm afraid being in denial won't help, Mrs. Mitchell.
Unfortunately, I see multiple scenarios like this everyday
and it's getting worse.
Hospitals and emergency rooms are overwhelmed
with the opiod pandemic.
The drugs are highly available
with very limited medical resources.
Your daughter dodged death tonight.
She may not be so lucky next time if she doesn't receive
immediate professional help.
- Wait, wait, who said anything about a next time?
- Throughout a relapse is constant, if not probable, sir.
- I think I've heard enough.
- No, no, no, please, please, no don't go,
you need to hear this, we all do.
- Addiction is progressive.
We believe Jilly recently turned to the streets
for something stronger once she couldn't
get the pills she craves.
Happens all the time.
- She probably got that rat poison
from that boy she's been seeing.
My granddaughter is not an addict.
I suggest we get some more tests.
- Yes mother, I agree.
- Your reactions aren't surprising
but the test results are indisputable.
The sooner she gets into a treatment facility,
the sooner she'll be on the road to recovery.
I might add.
- You may not.
Let's consult another doctor.
- Mother, let's hear Dr. Cooper out.
- If she starts treatment now,
Jilly has a shot at beating her dependency.
She'll need all of your support
and she's fortunate to have it.
- My granddaughter is getting her college degree
and you expect us to believe that she's been strung out
with this diagnosis of yours?
- Ma'am, the stereotype of what addiction looks like
has changed, it looks like Jilly.
It looks like you and me.
High functioning people go undetected for a long time
until something like this, or worse, happens.
- How did we miss this?
- If there's a silver lining, it's that it was detected.
There are excellent rehabilitation facilities
in Virginia but beds are scarce
and qualified psychotherapists, even scarcer.
- Doctor, our daughter isn't going to any rehab,
furthermore she's old enough to make her own decisions
around this recovery thing.
- There's always legal receivership or power of attorney.
I have another patient to see.
Think about what I said and consider a parent support group.
You're gonna need all the help you can get.
Ma'am, sir.
- We'll be in touch.
- I thought that man would never stop talking.
He ran his mouth like a bell clapper.
Honey, we're gonna get you up and on your feet in no time.
- Yes, honey.
- Going to be alright with some prayer,
we're gonna.
- We're gonna pray over here, right mother?
- Yes, let's right now baby.
- Here we go honey, my baby, my precious baby.
- Good morning.
- What's good about it?
- How'd you sleep.
- I didn't.
I can't believe we're dealing with this.
How did fentanyl get in Jilly's system?
- I assume she put it there.
- I'm not in the mood for your sarcasm Magnus.
Jilly has everything a person could possibly desire
and she turns to drugs as a coping mechanism.
I am so embarrassed for our family.
I am mortified.
- Never mind caring how we look on the outside.
We need to hunker down 'cause I think we're in
for a long hard bloody battle.
- Okay, Mr. Pessimism.
- I'm serious Jackie, this is gonna be
tougher than we think.
- I'm not raising this child twice.
We put everything we have in her and if she thinks.
- Are you deaf woman?
Did you hear what the doctor said?
Our daughter had fentanyl and traces of heroin
in her system, not to mention alcohol.
- And mother and I demanded another set of tests
to be sure.
- This is gonna be a bigger battle than I thought.
- Very funny.
- Jilly overdosed, was revived at the scene
of the crash with Narcan and you still think
they got it all wrong?
- Oh, shut up.
- No, not this time.
What more proof do you need?
And we should look to ourselves as well.
- Don't start pointing your fingers at me.
I'm the one that told you months ago
that my medication was missing,
not to mention our Tiffany spoons.
- Yes, and you blamed the cleaning lady and fired her.
- See, you know, sometimes I can't stand you.
- Mostly for the same reasons you married me no doubt,
for keeping you safe and your feet on the ground.
Let's face it.
We've always been more focused on our careers
and social status than Jilly.
Well maybe.
- Maybe what?
- Maybe it was gonna happen no matter what we did.
- I just want her home.
- She's not coming home.
Jilly's going to rehab, she's an addict.
- Stop saying that.
Even with the proof?
- Not now.
Done.
- When would be a better time, huh?
After she overdoses again and doesn't wake up.
- Out of my way.
- Jackie.
- I'm sick of it.
Jackie.
Can't run away from this Jackie.
Stop being in denial.
You can't ignore this like you done me all these years.
Jackie.
Last night we almost lost the one person
that's holding this family together.
Now I spoke with Dr. Cooper
and it's all done.
- What's all done?
- Jilly's transferring directly
to the rehabilitation center.
- You did that without me, how dare you?
- She's my daughter too, don't you forget
and she agreed.
We only got a bed because a patient
checked out prematurely.
- Hey.
- How's my baby doing today?
You scared me.
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
- Promise me that you won't leave me Paul.
- Hey, stop tripping.
I'll be there every Sunday.
Somebody's gotta get you in check
while you're in rehab.
- Yeah, actually I was thinking about
something a little more permanent.
- Whoa, slow down Jilly, slow down.
- Well, you love me right?
- Of course I love you.
- Well, people get married all the time
and I have money and my parents bought me the loft.
- Jilly, stop, stop, stop.
First, I don't need your money.
I make my own way and second, we've never even
talked about marriage.
Listen, you need to concentrate on
getting this stuff together.
'Cause if you don't it's gonna ride along with us
whether we're married or not.
- I love you Paul.
- I love you, too, Jilly,
but what you're dealing with is above my pay grade.
You gotta kick this stuff first.
- I am not a junkie.
I take the damn pills for pain.
They just don't work anymore.
I am so sick of everyone treating me like I'm crazy.
- So you think driving to West Virginia
to get more pills isn't crazy
or hurting yourself on purpose to scam drugs
from the emergency room.
I'm not going anywhere Jilly.
Jilly.
Took making you 37 double macchiatos to get you.
- And 37 times for you to get my drink right.
- I got your pineapple, who's this?
- This is Paul, Mom.
- Paul?
- How do you do, Mrs. Mitchell.
Wish it were under different circumstances.
- Jilly and I have some private family matters to handle.
So if you'll excuse us.
- Mom, no, he's not going anywhere.
- What?
- Daddy and I spoke to Dr. Cooper,
I'm going to rehab.
- No, no.
- There's no need for you to make a fuss.
- Please listen to your mother.
All you need to do is come home, precious,
so we can deal with this situation privately.
- With all due respect Mrs. Mitchell,
it seems like Jilly's made up her mind.
- No one asked for your opinion.
You know gangsters like you aren't
our type of people.
And now I know why my daughter never
introduced you to us.
- Yes, it's quite clear.
- By virtue of you being here visiting my daughter
in the middle of the day tells me you
have no legitimate job.
- Mom!
- What?
- Just leave.
- I'm not gonna leave.
- I can handle this by myself.
- Would you go, no you cannot handle it by yourself.
- Yes, I can.
- You know I don't understand who you are
or why you're here, but I need you to leave.
- Mom, just get out.
- I will not get out.
You tell him to get out.
- Is everything all right?
We can hear voices down the hall.
- I'm sorry ma'am.
- Then please keep it down,
we have other patients on the floor.
- Yes, ma'am, it won't happen again.
- Probably should go.
- Probably.
Don't make me call security.
- Wow.
See you later babe.
- Okay.
- Baby.
Mommy loves you.
- Can't buy control of this Mrs. Mitchell,
better we work together.
- That boy has some nerve.
We're trying to protect you from that kind of thing.
We're heartbroken.
- Don't you mean embarrassed.
I can always just kill myself.
- Jilly, don't you ever say that again.
But you need to take some responsibility
for your actions.
What you've done has caused a tremendous rift
in this family.
- Yeah, I thought there was one already.
- Excuse me.
Mother.
- I don't guess you met Chris Brown.
I saw him down in the lobby.
- I can't, I can't do it today mother.
- I'm praying for you girl.
- Thank you.
Oh, hi, sorry.
Drives me crazy.
- You're making good progress Jilly,
but you should share more in group.
- Yeah, well, it's hard for me.
- I understand but holding on to individualism
and secrets won't help your treatment or recovery.
- I know, but it's, it's like I told you before,
my family doesn't believe in discussing
personal business with strangers.
I was raised to believe that we're enough,
that prayer is enough.
- And what do you believe?
- Jilly, prayer is very powerful,
no one is disputing that.
It's in our literature, but it's not the soul
antidote for serious addiction.
If you thought you could kick it
on sheer willpower, you wouldn't be here.
- I'm trying.
- I know, but just going through the motions,
biding time won't get the results you deserve
and that could save your life.
- Is the hour up yet?
- Sure.
- Girl nothing beats a sale.
- Girl, who you telling?
- Except a rainbow.
- Mom.
- Beautiful.
- Mrs. Stewart.
You're looking well.
- Thank you, thank you very much.
- What brings you back?
- I just wanted to see what you were up to.
- Well, we went to the store and we picked
up some things for Jilly.
Thank God this fiasco's gonna be over soon.
- Personally I just don't know
how Magnus made all those arrangements
as quick as he did.
- Maybe Magnus had a little bit of help.
- Tell the truth.
Did you have anything to do with Jilly's arrangements?
- Does it matter?
It's what Jilly wanted and it's almost done
and she got the help that she needed.
Reputations are intact.
- That they are Mother, you never cease to amaze me.
- Honey, amazement has nothing to do with it.
I just did what you couldn't.
- Just take this last pin off of here, take that.
- These are really beautiful.
- Aren't they though.
- Jilly, I miss you.
I've been leaving you messages
and you haven't responded in a while.
What's up, I thought we were cool.
Whatever it is, we can work it out.
Hit me back, don't shut me out.
I love you, Paul.
- You okay?
- You been here a minute.
- Yeah, 'bout to get out though, so.
- I'm Rita.
This here's Marvin.
So what brings you here,
did you hit up one too many mini-bars
at the Ritz-Carlton?
You know, I see fancy chicks like you
come and go all the time.
- And how long have you been here.
- The question is how many times have I been here.
But hey, I ain't complaining.
This place is heaven compared to where
I'm going to next.
The Crowbar Hotel honey.
Reservations bought and paid for.
- Well, what'd you do?
- Involuntary manslaughter.
I didn't mean to.
I was high.
Hailey, that's my baby, she, she was crying
and put her in the car to go get some milk
and anyway, next thing I know crash
and my baby girl's gone and I broke my back.
And I get to live with that for the rest of my life.
- I'm sorry.
- So what's your story?
Oh, with the attitude like that
you ain't never getting out of here.
- Pills, okay.
- Oh, but there's always more.
Family, a man.
- I have a man, okay, and my folks are still together.
Sort of.
You know I was gonna be an Olympian.
- Right.
- I was and was a bad ass equestrian for real
until I fell off my horse and messed up my back.
Since then I've been in two kinds of pain.
Physical and psychological and I don't know,
I guess it was just easier to check out.
- You know that sounds like a fairy tale, right?
I mean people around here have real problems.
They're not sitting around crying over
some horsey dream.
- I just meant that that.
- I killed my kid.
I will never walk again.
I contemplate suicide every single day.
So from where I sit you have every opportunity
to overcome this crap.
